I use bsdtar for yypkg since gnu tar is impossible to build on windows, so that's already a given. Curl, pcre, xmlm, I'm putting that high in my list. GTK+, it can be a bit hard because the devs don't bother a lot with windows, but I want it too (and I hope that by making it easier to test their stuff against windows, they'll try better too).
For ocaml packages, I also believe the changes to something with oasis should be fairly small. That's also something I want to do. As for cross vs. native, currently, I don't think ocaml packages are doable as cross generally speaking. My reasons for not doing anything as native build are that: 1- security (it's windows after all), 2- speed (builds are much slower), 3- cannot bootstrap, cannot fully repeat the whole process. Of course, it's going to take much more time (I don't care [anymore], I've been on that for _years_ now and I've already lost all my sanity :P ). -- Adrien Nader _______________________________________________ Godi-list mailing list Godi-list@ocaml-programming.de https://godirepo.camlcity.org/mailman/listinfo/godi-list
