Build order & package notes:
- (1) mingw-binutils
+ ( 1) mingw-filesystem
- This is just a straight cross-compile of binutils. It has
- no BuildRequires beyond what is in basic Fedora already.
+ This is the base package containing the filesystem, RPM macros
+ and other stuff that everything depends on. This is a pure
+ Fedora RPM with no outside dependencies.
- (2) mingw-bootstrap
+ ( 2) mingw-binutils
- This is NOT a real Fedora package. Instead it is a BINARY
- package which is just needed first time if you are building
- from scratch. It contains some Windows binaries and header
- files which are needed to bootstrap everything, and which
- would normally be built by the packages below (specifically
- by mingw-runtime and mingw-w32api).

- Note that once built and installed, these last two replace the

+ should not build this package.

+Then for the rest, use ./BUILD.pl which is a script which works out
+the correct order to build packages and will display the list of
+commands that you have to invoke to do this.
+
+(Note that BUILD.pl doesn't actually build anything - it just prints
+suggested commands).
