introduction

To coordinate the efforts & give an overview, this page exists

- Some of our packages need to be updated again, some of them also in a binary incompatible way. - As we discussed on the sprint, the future gcc compiler will come from mingw-w64 project for both 32bit and 64bit. This requires some changes in KDE though.

new packages

  • poppler update to version 0.14.x
  • png update to version 1.4.x
  • jpeg update to version 8.0

compiler dependent

  • set up mingw-w64 packages
  • move mingw4 packages to mingw-w32 - is there a big difference e.g. do we need to recompile packages for that?
  • use msvc 2k10 ee?

kdewin-installer

  • add support for debug packages (gsoc)
  • make kdewin-installer a static library (gsoc/common)
