3 * MinGW SIG packages _before_ they are accepted into Fedora CVS.
5 * Any other tools / scripts we need.

11 Build order & package notes:
15 This is the base package containing the filesystem, RPM macros
16 and other stuff that everything depends on. This is a pure
17 Fedora RPM with no outside dependencies.
21 This is just a straight cross-compile of binutils. It has
22 no BuildRequires beyond what is in basic Fedora already.
24 ( 3) mingw-runtime-bootstrap
25 ( 4) mingw-w32api-bootstrap
27 These are NOT real Fedora packages. Instead they are BINARY
28 packages which is just needed first time if you are building
29 from scratch. It contains some Windows binaries and header
30 files which are needed to bootstrap everything, and which
31 would normally be built by the packages below (specifically
32 by mingw-runtime and mingw-w32api).
34 Note: If you already have mingw packages installed then you
35 should not build this package.
42 Note that once built and installed, these last two replace the
43 files built from binaries in mingw-{runtime,w32api}-bootstrap.
45 Then for the rest, use ./show-build-order.pl which is a script which
46 works out the correct order to build packages and will display the
47 list of commands that you have to invoke to do this.
49 (Note that show-build-order.pl doesn't actually build anything - it
50 just prints suggested commands).
