Hi all,
Lately I've been working on getting static libraries operational and usable in our toolchain. Attached to this mail are patches for pixman, cairo, libxml2, gettext, libssh2, libidn, openssl and curl.
I've also been working on static libraries for GTK+, but there are still some issues remaining with it (like a crash when loading external gdk-pixbuf modules or the 'wimp' theme engine) so I'm holding those off for now.
Developers/packagers which are going to use these static libraries need to customize their CFLAGS for some of the packages. This is necessary to prevent compile failures. A list of these customized CFLAGS is published at our new 'Tips and Tricks' page at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/Tips
Are these patches good to be applied? The packages libssh2, libidn, openssl and curl aren't in Fedora yet, so somebody else has to commit those to the temporary HG repository.
Regards,
Erik van Pienbroek

+1, please commit these.
Note that mingw32-openssl is in Fedora:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=mingw32-openssl
I'll commit your patches for the other three packages to our Hg repo.
Rich.

Uh, no, only the release notes are frozen, and any edits to those will also show up in the wiki, they'll just not automatically be included in the XML (nor in the HTML which is processed from the XML).
What you're seeing is just cache effects. Anonymous visitors are shown cached pages which aren't always updated instantly.
I think I got the cache to refresh by playing around with the history, try it now.
