+Build order & package notes:
+
+ ( 1) mingw-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) mingw-binutils
+
+ This is just a straight cross-compile of binutils. It has
+ no BuildRequires beyond what is in basic Fedora already.
+
+ ( 3) mingw-bootstrap
+
+ 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: If you already have mingw packages installed then you
+ should not build this package.
+
+ ( 4) mingw-gcc
+
+ ( 5) mingw-runtime
+ ( 6) mingw-w32api
+
+ Note that once built and installed, these last two replace the
+ files built from binaries in mingw-bootstrap.
+
+ ( 7) mingw-zlib
+
+ ( 8) mingw-libgpg-error
+
+ ( 9) mingw-libgcrypt
+
+ (10) mingw-iconv
+
+ (11) mingw-gettext
+
+ (12) mingw-gnutls
+
+ (13) mingw-libxml2
+
+ (14) mingw-portablexdr
+
+ (15) mingw-libvirt
