Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mingw32-pthreads-2.8.0-10.fc13.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try cross-compiling any code that uses localtime_r with a second argument with side effects, or try calling (localtime_r)(arg1,arg2). 2. Try cross-compiling any project that uses gnulib's <time.h> replacement header (libvirt is an example project; it includes a ./autobuild.sh script that will automatically try a mingw cross-compilation, if you have installed a mingw portablexdr library, although that library is not yet part of fedora). Actual results: The definition of localtime_r is broken, because it evaluates the second argument twice. And, since POSIX allows one to #undef localtime_r, but there is no localtime_r function in the library, you get a link failure if you bypass the function-like macro. Finally, the pthreads-win32 library made the mistake of installing <config.h>, which is asking for namespace collision with most other autotooled packages. Expected results: <pthread.h> should not define any *_r functions, nor should it interfere with a proper <time.h>. Also, the library should not install <config.h>, but should instead modify its installed headers to be self-contained.

nspr: fix for mock build
by Amorilia 07 May '11

07 May '11

Hi everyone, Here's a fix for the build problem for nspr in mock: http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/1c143a5840bb15b11098edb7130e… It seems that the problem goes back all the way to AC_PROG_CC: when wine is installed, apparently AC_PROG_CC (mistakenly?) sets cross_compiler to false. Additionally, here's a sync of the spec file with the native fedora one, and a few extra build patches: http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/19af2a48f6d2cc90009c581a7e8a… http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/629eb75b24e1755c92041b614b40… http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/44031e8cf4d0149debeb97c0c833… Although the tests build, when running them under wine, many fail. I haven't investigated this further. I don't plan to work on this anymore for the time being, so I'm simply throwing these patches here in case someone else would be interested. For quick reference, full spec file and patches: http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/tree/master/nspr/ Yours, Amorilia

Proposal: drop the hard dependency on mingw32-gettext from mingw32-glib2
by Erik van Pienbroek 07 May '11

07 May '11

Hi, Recently I was browsing the upstream GTK website and I noticed that upstream has used a special trick to build the Win32 binaries for GLib. In order to make the dependency on gettext a soft one they used a small static wrapper library called libproxy-intl [1]. With this wrapper library the GLib DLL doesn't depend directly anymore on libintl-8.dll (from mingw32-gettext). The wrapper library makes the hard dependency a runtime one. This means that if libintl-8.dll is bundled with the application then gettext translations will be used, otherwise nothing gets translated. I'd like to propose that we apply this change as well in our Fedora MinGW toolchain. Such a change consists of the following smaller changes: - Bundle the libproxy-intl code (1 .c file and 1 .h file) in the mingw32-gettext srpm as additional source files - Compile the libproxy-intl code with these 2 instructions: %{_mingw32_cc} -c libintl.c -o libintl.o -I. %{_mingw32_ar} rc libintl.a libintl.o - Replace the files libintl.{a,.dll.a,.la} generated by the gettext compilation with the libintl.a file from libproxy-intl. This makes any binary which tries to link against mingw32-gettext using '-lintl' have a soft-dependency on libintl. After this a simple rebuild of mingw32-glib2 should be sufficient enough to make mingw32-gettext a soft dependency. Next to glib2 there are also some other packages which have a hard dependency on libintl-8.dll: $ repoquery --whatrequires 'mingw32(libintl-8.dll)' mingw32-atk-0:1.32.0-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-gdk-pixbuf-0:2.22.0-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-glib2-0:2.26.0-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-gnutls-0:2.6.4-3.fc13.noarch mingw32-gtk-vnc-0:0.4.1-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-gtk2-0:2.22.0-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-gtkhtml3-0:3.32.0-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-gvnc-0:0.4.1-1.fc14.noarch mingw32-hunspell-0:1.2.8-11.fc12.noarch mingw32-libglade2-0:2.6.4-4.fc12.noarch mingw32-libidn-0:1.14-5.fc12.noarch Most of these packages (if not all) don't use gettext directly, but get linked against gettext because of it being mentioned in glib2's pkgconfig and .la files. A rebuild should be sufficient to replace the hard dependencies on those packages by soft ones. However, in order to prevent the libproxy-intl functions from being exported in other DLL's (as mentioned on [1]) I think it's better drop the reference to libintl from glib2's pkgconfig and .la files. As most of the packages mentioned above don't use gettext directly, but the GLib gettext functions to handle translations this shouldn't cause any major problems. As the glib2 headers depend on the libintl.h header a 'Requires: mingw32-gettext' also needs to be added to the mingw32-glib2 package. I already applied these changes in a testing repository for a generic cross compiler framework (coming soon!) [2][3] and it works fine there. Another thing GTK upstream has done in their Win32 binaries is using win-iconv instead of GNU iconv. I just put up a review request for mingw32-win-iconv at [4]. Could somebody please review that package? Does everybody agree to these changes?

Announcing the Cross Compiler Framework (Win32+Win64)
by Erik van Pienbroek 15 Feb '11

15 Feb '11

Hi everybody, In the last few weeks I worked on creating a method to easily build and maintain RPM packages for both Win32 as well as Win64 targets. Adding support for the Mac OS X target should also be easily possible. This has resulted in a set of RPM packages which I would like to call the Cross Compiler Framework. This set of RPM packages brings various changes to the Fedora MinGW world. The most important one is that the mingw-w64 toolchain is now used instead of the mingw.org toolchain. The reason behind this change is that the mingw-w64 toolchain provides support for both win32 and win64 targets and is more actively maintained than the mingw.org one. So what does this mean for all users and packagers of the current mingw32 packages which are already in Fedora? First of all, the name of the triplet has changed from 'i686-pc-mingw32' to 'i686-w64-mingw32'. This means that commands like for example gcc are now named 'i686-w64-mingw32-gcc'. All mingw32 files are now also saved in the folder /usr/i686-w64-mingw32 instead of /usr/i686-pc-mingw32. Helper scripts like 'mingw32-configure' also still work and refer to the new set of commands and paths. Next to this, various packages have been renamed from 'mingw32-...' to 'cross-...'. This is used to indicate that the package in question contain binaries for multiple targets. If a package has been renamed from 'mingw32-...' to 'cross-...' then the original 'mingw32-...' package will be obsoleted by the 'cross-...' one. All current mingw32 packages should build just fine against this new framework (or with minor patching) There are two repositories published at the moment containing the packages belonging to the cross compiler framework. One contains binaries for both win32 and win64 targets while the other one also contains binaries for Mac OS X. The Mac OS X pieces can't be added to Fedora at the moment because of legal issues and the fact that some binary blobs (from the Mac OS X SDK) were used. All current mingw32 packages which have been in Fedora as of December 30 2010 have been added to the testing repositories. About 32 packages have been ported entirely to the new cross compiler framework. More details about this cross compiler framework including information about the testing repositories and a porting guide can be found at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/CrossCompilerFramework My plan is to get all the packages belonging to the cross compiler framework in Fedora 15, rebuild all current mingw32 packages and rename/port various packages in order to have win32/win64 support. On the link mentioned above there's a plan indicating the steps required to get everything in Fedora. I'll open review requests for the 5 base packages soon and I hope that somebody can review them quickly so we can still make it in time for the Fedora 15 feature freeze (which is about 5 weeks from now). Feel free to test the testing repositories and report back any issues you might find. Other feedback about the cross compiler framework is welcome too. Help with the reviews is very much appreciated as well! Kind regards, Erik van Pienbroek

winpcap?
by Gilboa Davara 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

Hello all, I started testing the new cross compiler framework on a two of my Fedora 14 / x86_64 workstations. Two questions: 1. Any idea when wpcap will be build for mingw64? Can I somehow help? 2. Would it be possible to move pcap back into the normal include? It's currently sitting in include/wpcap making it impossible to build applications requiring wpcap without manually adding /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/wpcap to the gcc command line. Ideally, cross platform code should simply include pcap/pcap.h. - Gilboa
