Hi Wayne, There's no reason it shouldn't work really, KiCad-Winbuilder uses mingw-w64 and builds fine with wxPython (Well, the wxwidgets-cmake project I did for it: https://launchpad.net/wxwidgets-cmake ). By the way, is the MSYS python okay when not being run in a POSIX environment? I'm sure it is and in which case it removes the need for Python-a-mingw-us, but Python-a-mingw-us is still the only MinGW compiled python distribution outside of MSYS as far as I'm aware. This is obviously essential for us when packaging KiCad for windows. What we do need to think about when generating a stable release for Windows is the packaging of dependencies. Python brings with it a lot of dependency requirements. I don't think cpack will be able to handle our installer very well if we choose to include python (which I am assuming we will have to). I'm very glad to see you've got the python console up and running! :D Best Regards, Brian. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
