I don't think so. Since we don't do anything special with the GTK stack we provide, there is no need to "reverse engineer" it. What we do is installing packages with MSYS2 and remove some unnecessary files. And necessary scripts for developing are in the repo as well as a howto in the wiki. To be complete in this regard, we would maybe even have to include the toolchain into the installer which is overkill, IMO.
Btw, just the headers won't be enough. We would need to include the .a files probably as well and they have some significant file size. --- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
