Fwd: Goocanvas for Mingw32
by Richard W.M. Jones 28 Jan '12

28 Jan '12

Thanks Egil, I am forwarding your message and the spec file to the fedora-mingw mailing list. I looked quickly over the spec file and it looks good. Rich. ----- Forwarded message from Egil Kvaleberg <egil(a)kvaleberg.com> ----- Subject: Goocanvas for Mingw32 Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2009 13:54:27 +0200 From: Egil Kvaleberg <egil(a)kvaleberg.com> To: rjones(a)redhat.com I have played around with the Mingw32 for Fedora, and it absolutely seems like a very cool thing. For my purposes, I am using GTK2, which is supported, but I also need a canvas. I have been using Goocanvas (not sure what really is *the* canvas for GTK2, but I have been happy with Goocanvas). However, a Goocanvas package does not seem to be available, so I built one. Goocanvas may be of interest to others, so if you think it is suitable then please use the attached spec-file or tell me how to get involved. The spec-file for Fedora 11 is attached. Sincerely, Egil Kvaleberg -- Company: Kvaleberg AS Office: +47 22 44 31 75 Mobile: +47 920 22 780 Fax: +47 22 44 46 77 Web: http://www.kvaleberg.com/ ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Richard Jones, Emerging Technologies, Red Hat http://et.redhat.com/~rjones virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.

I've attached the gcc bug report below. This make running a non-trivial C++ program impossible an renders the mingw32 toolchain unusable for real-world C++ programs. The mingw-w64 toolchain has solved this problem by supplying a shared libgcc, hopefully the mingw32 toolchain will follow this approach in the near future. Please keep on your tremendous work on providing the ming32 toolchain in the EPEL.

For this we've created some custom scripts to strip out debug information to separate files and added some RPM macro's to create -debuginfo subpackages containing these files. This has been discussed at http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fedora-mingw/2009-June/001748.html The RPM scripts were added in mingw32-filesystem-52-1.fc12 and some of our regular MinGW packages were rebuild as can be seen at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=111400 After waiting for the next rawhide push we discovered that the mingw32-glib2-debuginfo subpackage wasn't published in the rawhide-debuginfo repository. We think it's caused by the fact that our mingw32 packages are noarch. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Fedora 12: What projects for F12?
by Richard W.M. Jones 20 Mar '10

20 Mar '10

Fedora 11 is nearly in beta, and thanks to some judicious cuts at the end, we made it to 100% feature complete. Thanks to the many people who helped out reviewing packages and testing. What do we want to aim for in Fedora 12? Some ideas - please add your own to this thread. (1) Win64 support (see: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fedora-mingw/2009-February/thread.… ) (2)? Use mingw-w64 project to build 32 bit w32api/runtime, since mingw-w64 seems to be more active. (3) Darwin / OS X support (see: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-March/msg00397.html ) (4) Get some of the issues resolved in the packaging guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/Packaging_issues (5) Expand active members, particularly packagers. I would like to start by having a website which doesn't suck like our current one. (6) Move educational materials to a single place. (7) Have a FAQ. (8) I'd like to have a reasonable Python story. I spent a lot of time trying to get Python and Python libs to cross-compile, without any success.

mingw32-SDL_image and mingw32-SDL_mixer
by Jason Woofenden 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Hi all, I'm pretty new to this packaging and cross-compiling, but I put together a couple packages anyway: http://jasonwoof.com/downloads/mingw32-SDL_image-1.2.6-1.fc11.src.rpm http://jasonwoof.com/downloads/mingw32-SDL_mixer-1.2.8-1.fc11.src.rpm They seem to work quite well for me, but I don't really know what I'm doing, so I'd appreciate more knowledgeable folk looking over my spec files. Here's what I did and where everything came from: (all in F11) 1) I set up my .rpmmacros so it would store sources in separate directories by package name-version by adding this line: %_sourcedir %{_topdir}/SOURCES/%{name}-%{version} I was worried that multiple source rpms would have files in them with the same name (which turned out to be the case) and I wanted to make sure I could tell what packages what files came from. 2) I used yumdownloader to download source rpms for SDL SDL_mixer SDL_image and SDL and installed them in my local rpmbuild tree 3) I duplicated SOURCES/SDL_image-1.2.6/ to SOURCES/mingw32-SDL_image-1.2.6/ 4) I copied SPECS/mingw32-SDL-1.2.13.spec to SPECS/mingw32-SDL_image-1.2.6.spec 5) I edited that new spec file, mostly by looking at existing SDL_image-1.2.6.spec and pulling useful parts from it. tweaking as neccesary. And basically did the same for SDL_mixer. Some notes: I didn't modify anything in the SOURCES folder (just copied whole folders as described above). I used all the patches that were used for the native versions. I commented out lines to install (and build in one case) little executable programs from both packages that I didn't understand the point of. I've cross-compiled my game (vor) which uses both of these libraries, and it works great under wine. (Gets at least 40% better framerate under wine than it does when compiled for linux.) Though I have not tested them on Windows. I have a fedoraproject.org account (so I can edit the wiki and such) but don't have any connections or access or anything to get these into the fedora distrobution. If/when they are ready, I'd love someone to take care of this, or help me do it. Right now I don't even know what the process is. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts/feedback. Take care, - Jason
