(For the GTK2 builds that is openSUSE 13.1 and for the GTK3 builds it is 13.2) If there is no version available, as for Sourceview 3, or too old, as for Pixman, I can build my own package, independent from what is installed on openSUSE. Look at it as some kind of a virtual mingw environment within my (virtual) openSUSE machine So easiest is to use packages provided, but if there is a good reason I can change that.

I prefer just to use non-standard packages if needed. I used to keep this stable for about a year or so and then upgrade to newer packages. For the GTK3 version I use: Packages used for the 32bits build. atk 2.16.0 cairo-fc 1.14.2 cairo-ft 1.14.2 cairo-gobject 1.14.2 cairo-pdf 1.14.2 cairo-png 1.14.2 cairo-ps 1.14.2 cairo-script 1.14.2 cairo-svg 1.14.2 cairo-tee 1.14.2 cairo-win32-font 1.14.2 cairo-win32 1.14.2 cairo 1.14.2 fontconfig 2.10.92 freetype2 16.1.10 gail-3.0 3.14.2 gail 2.24.23 gdk-2.0 2.24.23 gdk-3.0 3.14.2 gdk-pixbuf-2.0 2.30.8 gdk-win32-2.0 2.24.23 gdk-win32-3.0 3.14.2 gio-2.0 2.44.0 gio-windows-2.0 2.44.0 glib-2.0 2.44.0 gmodule-2.0 2.44.0 gmodule-export-2.0 2.44.0 gmodule-no-export-2.0 2.44.0 gobject-2.0 2.44.0 gsl 1.14 gthread-2.0 2.44.0 gtk+-2.0 2.24.23 gtk+-3.0 3.14.2 gtk+-win32-2.0 2.24.23 gtk+-win32-3.0 3.14.2 gtksourceview-3.0 3.12.3 harfbuzz-icu 0.9.29 harfbuzz 0.9.29 icu-i18n 53.1 icu-io 53.1 icu-le 53.1 icu-lx 53.1 icu-uc 53.1 libglade-2.0 2.6.4 libpng 1.6.11 libpng16 1.6.11 libxml-2.0 2.9.0 pango 1.36.8 pangocairo 1.36.8 pangoft2 1.36.8 pangowin32 1.36.8 pixman-1 0.32.2 zlib 1.2.8 I changed my procedures during the conversion to GTK3 so the packages used are always listed for example in http://sourceforge.net/projects/pspp4windows/files/2015-06-24-DoNotUse/ BTW for the people on this list. This is a fully functional GTK3 build. You can test it if you want. And for the skilled users among you have a look at the debug version. GDB is integrated in that package and it is easy to use even for not developers. It might be useful for bug hunting on MSWindows. Have fun
