--- Comment #65 from Kevin Kofler <kevin(a)tigcc.ticalc.org> ---
Of course we want to ship the MinGW support, assuming it works with our
cross-MinGW (mingw32-*/mingw64-*) packages. As for the WiX support, what it
will boil down to is the optional runtime dependency on an external component,
that is typically not a problem in Fedora (see Ark supporting tools like unrar,
libdvdread dlopening libdvdcss etc.). Whether a -wix subpackage can be made or
whether it has to be stuffed into something larger depends on how strictly the
reviewer interprets the Fedora guideline I linked in comment #61. (The
guideline as written is not even clear on whether it is per source package or
per binary (sub)package.)
As for my personal opinion, I would like to clarify that what I have a problem
with is not support for compiling FOR a proprietary platform, but support for
tools that lock you into compiling ON the proprietary platform.
