Attached (and pasted in it entirety, although quite a few of the long
lines are munched) is my rpm spec file for building the mingw
cross-compiler as an rpm. It is more or less a wrapper which massages
the cross-tool script and setting some of the directories in
the "RPM" way and eventually everything is under /opt/mingw ; the
only tricky part is telling rpm not to strip binaries.
The mingw folks has already stated that they do *not* want to distribute
mingw-cross as an rpm (or any binary-packaging), so this is likely to
end up as part of a Wiki article on the mingw web site I'll probably
contribute in time.
As my primary use of mingw-cross at the moment is with R (and the
R people do currently provide mingw-cross binaries), I think it
is appropriate that it be taken into CRAN, either being used, or
archived somewhere for others as reference...
I have only used it on fedora core 6, so be warned :-). Hope it is
useful to somebody else.
