Hi, thanks for the inputs received. This is just to let you know about my progress.
On my Debian derivative (Ubuntu Intrepid), I upgraded to OCAML 3.11. I also debianized a bunch of mingw32 rpms for Fedora 10 (I had installed the i586 version, and switched to the i686). Then cross-compiling and installation (on Vista through NSISwrapper) an Ocaml program of mine was working almost very well. > Anyway, the original poster is way outside the envelope of what we > could possibly support, so please install a Fedora virtual machine. I actually installed a Fedora 10 virtual machine, but I'm very slow in getting started. For example, I'm stuck with (maybe trivial) problems such as >> [r...@fedora10 ~]# yum install gcc Loaded plugins: dellsysidplugin2, refresh-packagekit fedora/metalink | 11 kB 00:00 Could not parse metalink https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-10.91&arch=i386 error was File //var/cache/yum/fedora/metalink.xml.tmp is not XML Error: File //var/cache/yum/fedora/metalink.xml does not exist << Two final observations on nsiswrapper. I cannot completely uninstall the program. I generated the nsis script below, by means of the make target >> I686MINGW32DLLDIR=\\usr\\i686-pc-mingw32\\sys-root\\mingw\\bin NSISWRAPPEROPTS=--installdir 'C:\Program files\VMGcalc' \ --name "VMGcalc" --outfile "VMGcalc-for-Windows.exe" \ --with-gtk \ nsisscript: cd ../windows ;\ nsiswrapper $(NSISWRAPPEROPTS) \ bin/Vmgcalc.exe \ | awk ' {sub(/$(I686MINGW32DLLDIR)/,"bin"); print}' \ > script.nsis << but the folders etc/ and lib/ are not removed (hence the INSTDIR folder is not removed itself). Shouldn't the script contain something as RMDir "$INSTDIR\lib\" RMDir "$INSTDIR\etc\" ? Also, notice the line >> | awk ' {sub(/$(I686MINGW32DLLDIR)/,"bin"); print}' \ << in the nsisscript target.
