mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

Wanted to install mingw-w64-gcc but it is no longer in the community repository. I found it in aur but that was just uploaded yesterday. Wiki pages still link to mingw-w64-gcc (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mi … guidelines) so I don't know if this was unintentional.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

Yes, it was intentional. Pretty hard to be dropped from the binary repos and created in the AUR by accident.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

The AUR package is also broken (dependency cycle) and unmaintained.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

Rational for the removal of mingw-w64-gcc-base https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42847 you can still find it in svntogit https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/comm … b6a52406ff

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

That rationale seems really suspect to me. Yes, it's only used for building mingw-w64-gcc, which I now cannot do because it was removed. Furthermore, the isl package required by the linked PKGBUILD is broken, so I can't even build the thing myself.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

Update the PKGBUILD I linked from svntogit?
Edit:
Ah crosspost.

Yeah, I'll just have to wait until that ISL package is fixed. It's a syntax error in ./configure and I've no clue how to deal with it. Thanks for the help tho.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

If you really need it can't you just install it from the archive?

No. mingw-w64-gcc-base requires cloog which can't be installed because it requires isl >= 0.18 which can't be built because the AUR package is broken.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

If nothing else, installing slightly outdated versions from the archive would make building the new versions trivially easy.  The dependencies are not versioned.

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

Having refreshed my environment it's clear that the ISL bug was a problem with my environment. I'll publish a Docker image (and associated Dockerfile) with all the steps I took to get the mingw compiler working in an hour or so, and link it here. Thanks for all the help, though I'd still prefer it if there were binary packages available.

So you will be sharing yours?

Yeah, definitely; I'll make them available on my webserver. I don't have the time to keep them updated, though.

EDIT: Here ya go. https://leotindall.com/packages/

Re: mingw-w64-gcc gone from community repo

The linked FS#42847 only talks about `mingw-w64-gcc-base` being removed, because it was only needed to build `mingw-w64-gcc`. First I searched all tasks for mingw, but there were a lot of very old ones and not relevant. I then searched the mailing list and found this topic: http://archlinux.2023198.n4.nabble.com/ … 17870.html. It looks like it was removed because it had no maintainer. It should have been much easier to find this information...
