After building an MS Windows installer for Mixxx using the standard
instructions, I decided to try getting it to work with MinGW running under
Linux.
The branch at lp:~ulatekh/mixxx/mingw is the result of my work so far.
The qmake version (i.e. build/qtcreator/mixxx.pro) is a bit clunky, but can be
made to work.
Here's my scons command to cross-compile the MS Windows version:
scons ladspa=0 shoutcast=0 hifieq=1 script=0 optimize=0 ffmpeg=0 target=windows
crosscompile_root=/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw hss1394=0 vamp=0
vinylcontrol=0 hid=0 sqlitedll=0
I haven't built hss1394 for MinGW yet, vinylcontrol and hid depend on phonon
(which has heavy dependencies, like KDE :-), and I'm still trying to build a
MinGW version of jack-audio-connection-kit -- until then, Mixxx uses
DirectSound.
Many of the packages that Mixxx depends on are not in the yum repos. See
https://bugs.launchpad.net/mixxx/+bug/1179683 for an archive containing .spec
files and patches that can be used to transform the standard versions of the
dependencies into the MinGW versions. The archive is specific to Fedora Core
18, but I provided enough information to let you adjust my work to your own
Linux distribution.
Give it a go, let me know if it works for you!
Longer term, I'm trying to get these dependencies submitted to Fedora, but
based on the VERY long list of packages awaiting review, I doubt it'll ever
happen. I don't know if we can set up a yum repo on mixxx.org, but that would
be one solution.
