Thanks for the many pointers! I wanted to try a more recent gcc from git
first. The compile works, but it fails finally in packaging:
#> makepkg-mingw --force --cleanbuild --syncdeps --noconfirm --rmdeps --needed
[...]
==> Starting package_mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc-git()...
cp: cannot stat 'lib/libvtv*': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package_mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc-git().
Aborting...
Is this a known issue, are there workarounds? There would be a libvtv
directory at the root of build, is this what should be copied?
./src/build-x86_64-w64-mingw32/x86_64-w64-mingw32/libvtv
Thanks a lot, and all the best,
Mario
