OK, on my VM that has current mingw I did mingw-get update to make sure all was current, That's not true, mingw-get update only loads the new manifest files, i.e. the package definitions and dependencies (mingw-get is modelled like apt-get). It's not yet full-featured, but you can now

I downloaded MinGW-get from mingw.org and ran it (it seems that they uploaded it only 24 hours ago - should I use a different version). Using the included package, it does not install the C compiler (it does compile C++ though). Using the option to download the newest version, I get tons of

One more note: although some people recommend changing the Windows system PATH environment variable, I never do this for MinGW. IMHO it is much better to change the path only in the MinGW environment. I also *remove* some Windows path components which I don't like in the MinGW environment,

To those MinGW fans out there: I am trying to add MinGW compiles for Jenkins. I downloaded MinGW-get from mingw.org and ran it (it seems that they uploaded it only 24 hours ago - should I use a different version). Using the included package, it does not install the C compiler (it does compile
