Sometime this weekend I will probably do another clean build (from
nothing,
installing mingw, packages etc to a compiled octave)
I guess I should add the mingw installed packages as requirements to
index.html in mxe-octave the same as had been done for fedora and
others?
A few moments ago I completed cross-builds on Linux.
1. src/native-gcc.mk had to be patched to fix building
native-binutils. Patch attached.
2. Next I've dropped the sql stuff (freetds, libodbc++, postgresql,
sqlite) and tested the cross-compiled octave on win-xp. Works OK AFAICS.
Patch attached as well, first apply the src/native-gcc one.
(Note: I made this cs by manually editing out the src/native-gcc fix)
Maybe I have more time this weekend to find other unneeded
dependencies, but a quick glance at the list scrolling by during the
cross build didn't show obvious candidates.
