-Build order & package notes:
+News 2008-11-06
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
- (1) mingw-binutils
+We have started the process of reviewing and importing packages into
+Fedora.
- This is just a straight cross-compile of binutils. It has
- no BuildRequires beyond what is in basic Fedora already.
+As each package gets imported into Fedora, we *remove* it from this
+repository. All further adjustments to the package should be done in
+Fedora CVS, as with any ordinary Fedora package.
- (2) mingw-bootstrap
+We need more reviewers:
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=mingw32
- 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).
+Build everything
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
- (3) mingw-gcc
+ * Install mock
- (4) mingw-runtime
- (5) mingw-w32api
+ * Install smock (read smock/README)
- Note that once built and installed, these last two replace the
- files built from binaries in mingw-bootstrap.
+ * Download source tarballs and put them in each package directory
+ (see .hgignore and the specfiles for a list).
+
+ * Run ./build-everything-in-mock.sh
+
+ * Build logs are printed to the screen and saved in 'buildall.log'
+
+Package notes
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ ( 1) mingw32-filesystem
+
+ 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) mingw32-binutils
+
+ This is just a straight cross-compile of binutils. It has
+ no BuildRequires beyond what is in basic Fedora already.
+
+ ( 3) mingw32-runtime-bootstrap
+ ( 4) mingw32-w32api-bootstrap
+
+ These are NOT real Fedora packages. Instead they are BINARY
+ packages 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 mingw32-runtime and mingw32-w32api).
+
+ Note: If you already have MinGW packages installed then you
+ should not build this package.
+
+ ( 5) mingw32-gcc
+
+ ( 6) mingw32-runtime
+ ( 7) mingw32-w32api
+
+ Note that once built and installed, these last two replace the
+ files built from binaries in mingw32-{runtime,w32api}-bootstrap.
