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.

The documentation at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/CrossCompilerFramework has just been updated to reflect the current state. Right now I'm rebuilding everything against GCC 4.6 (HEAD) but it's probably going to take some days to get everything built as GCC has become more picky about invalid command line arguments which causes various packages to fail to build.

I'd hate for this to miss F15. Even though I'm not an official sponsor, post a list of the Bugzilla #s of the reviews you need attention and I'll do a psuedo-review. Maybe that will get the attention of a sponsor and they will breeze through it.

At the moment there are no opened review requests yet as I want to get everything built against gcc 4.6 first before creating review requests. I expect to get this finished by Saturday. For now you can already pre-review the specs/sources which can be found at http://svn.openftd.org/viewvc/Fedora%20Cross%20Compiler%20Framework/ BTW, you don't have to be a sponsor to approve these packages. As long as you are sponsored by somebody else you can review and approve packages. I think it's sufficient for us to have everything reviewed using the regular package review process and have a Fedora Feature approved by FESCO (which I still have to create).
