Thanks a lot! I just performed some minor renamings:

    http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/mingw-cross-env/rev/6c85587cbc08

However, it seems that our tutorial is no longer valid due to the
pkg-config related changes. Would you mind adjusting it?

    See doc/index.html, part "Step 5e: Cross compile your Project (OSG)"

In the meantime, I upgraded all remaining packages. The only exceptions
are GD and POPT, because the sites libgd.org and rpm5.org are down. Of
course I added download mirrors, but it is still really strange that
those two sites are still down, and have been down for quite some time.
Usually, the downtime of a project lasts no longer than a few days ...

Those two sites disturb our auto-upgrade helper. But I wanted to rework
that stuff anyway. In the future, we'll be able to circumvent such issues
via a "make -k update" or similar. BTW, do you make active use of
"make update", or "make update PKGS=...", or do you perform these steps
by hand? I'm just wondering because it seems that you cherry-pick the
packages you upgrade, while my "make update" is meant to be used to
upgrade as much as possible.


Greets,
Volker
