At the moment we have in portage: dev-util/xmingw-binutils dev-util/xmingw-runtime dev-util/xmingw-gcc dev-util/xmingw-w32api Which gives a usable W32 toolchain on gentoo using just standard W32 libraries. But every so often people submit ebuild for other libraries for use with this toolchain ( eg. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101468 ) I have not added them up to now as it would, in my opinion, just clutter things. The other option is to make an external non-official tree that people could use as an overlay. Opinions? Stefan -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
