Follow-up Comment #7, bug #60048 (project octave): Another aspect here is that in the Windows builds/installers a fair nr. of Octave package are included that have been "updated" (by dedicatedly patching them during the cross-build) so that they at least build and work with newer Octave releases included in the Windows installers. The main mxe-octave contributor/maintainer who does this didn't add functionality, so functionally the pertinent packages are just like the formally released ones. But formally they obviously aren't. @Kai: Crossbuilds made with "--enable-binary-packages=no" don't have cross-built & installed OF-packages but do include ready-to-install OF packages that are "fully" patched. Currently the nightlies are built with "--enable-binary-packages=yes". During the build the package are patched first and then built & installed in the usual way. Could the patched packages be saved and made available somewhere, and/or maybe linked to from the OF website? Of course there may be all kind of objections but this might help to mitigate bug reports like this one. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60048> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
