Summary: mingw32-gcc should not drag in mingw32-pthreads
Product: Fedora
Version: 13
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: mingw32-gcc
AssignedTo: rjones(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: eblake(a)redhat.com
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: berrange(a)redhat.com, rjones(a)redhat.com,
kalev(a)smartlink.ee,
fedora-mingw(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Classification: Fedora
Target Release: ---
Description of problem:
mingw32-gcc currently drags in a dependency on mingw32-pthreads, which in turn
forces some namespace pollution due to its buggy <pthread.h> header. It would
be much nicer if the mingw32-pthreads package remained optional, since it can
interfere with cross-compilation efforts to mingw.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mingw32-gcc-4.4.2-2.fc13.x86_64
mingw32-pthreads-2.8.0-10.fc13.noarch
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install mingw32-gcc
Actual results:
mingw32-pthreads gets sucked in as a required dependency to the cross-compiler.
Expected results:
Mere presence of the cross-compiler shouldn't force the existence of a broken
<pthread.h>. Either the compiler needs to be built without mingw32-pthreads,
or mingw32-pthreads needs to be split into two packages (runtime dependency of
the compiler, vs. development library that installs <pthread.h> for situations
that actually want to use this library in spite of its current upstream flaws).

Summary: mingw32-gcc installs files both inside and outside the
sysroot
Product: Fedora
Version: 13
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: mingw32-gcc
AssignedTo: rjones(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: pbonzini(a)redhat.com
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: rjones(a)redhat.com, kalev(a)smartlink.ee,
fedora-mingw(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Classification: Fedora
Target Release: ---
Description of problem:
mingw32-gcc is a strange hybrid package that installs files both inside and
outside the sysroot. The files in the sysroot should be separated in
mingw32-libgcc.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mingw32-gcc-4.4.2-2.fc13.x86_64
Additional info:
This makes the following packages depend incorrectly on mingw32-gcc:
* mingw32-gettext (directly)
* mingw32-pthreads (directly)
* mingw32-atk (indirectly)
* mingw32-glib2 (indirectly)
* mingw32-gtk2 (indirectly)
* mingw32-pango (indirectly)
