In theory you should be able to do: nsiswrapper somebinary.exe and it will pull in all the dependencies and produce a Windows installer. For Gtk you may need a few extra flags (although really it should detect Gtk automatically and do the Right Thing). > anyway nsiswrapper missing from the temporary repo. is there a reason > for this? Yes! It's because of a bug in smock where it forgot about any packages that didn't have a dependency relation with another package. I've fixed the bug in smock and will rebuild a few missing packages shortly.
