It's not so easy for wxWidgets unless you're planning to use wxGTK rather
than the native W32 port. Fedora obviously doesn't ship a W32 wxWidgets as
a native Fedora package, only wxGTK.
Sorry, you lost me here. I get that Fedora doesn't currently have a W32
wxWidgets package, thats why I was asking if anyone had an interest in my
making such a package. What do you see as making it not so easy? The wx
sources cross build very nicely with mingw, I've been doing it for years with
a hand built mingw. The .spec for wxGTK with very few changes should work
pretty much out the door with no patches or anything.
I'm new to packaging so maybe I am being naive? But getting a cross built wx
for win32 is no problem with mingw.
