Hi Jason, With our MinGW toolchain it should be perfectly possible to build the wine-gecko library from source. The instructions at http://wiki.winehq.org/BuildingWineGecko are all that we need to create a .spec file for it. The only thing that needs attention is the contents of the wintools.zip file. That file contains some binaries (like gmake.exe) which are required for compilation (however, this is targeted for native Win32 environments). Those binaries probably aren't required when cross-compiling but that's something which should be investigated. If you're interesting I can try to create a .spec file for it. However, if you want to have it in Fedora I don't want to be it's primary maintainer (but co-maintaining is fine with me). Regards, Erik van Pienbroek PS.
