Hi all,
in some spare minutes, I started playing with a patch to try to remove
the dtc submodule from the QEMU git repository - according to
https://repology.org/project/dtc/versions our supported build
platforms should now all provide the minimum required version.
However, I'm hitting a problem with Windows / MSYS2 in the CI jobs:
The libfdt is packaged as part of the dtc package there:
https://packages.msys2.org/package/dtc
... meaning that it is added with a usr/include and usr/lib path
prefix instead of mingw64/include and mingw64/lib like other packages
are using (see e.g.
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-zlib?repo=mingw64).
Thus the compiler does not find the library there. Also there does not
seem to be a difference between a i686 (32-bit) and x86_64 (64-bit)
variant available here? Does anybody know how libfdt is supposed to be
used with MSYS2 ?

Hi Thomas,
"dtc" is not the right package for cross builds. We'd require
mingw-w64-i686-dtc and mingw-w64-x86_64-dtc packages for the QEMU build,
but those packages are currently not provided by MSYS2.
See https://packages.msys2.org/search?t=binpkg&q=zlib for the zlib
packages and related cross build packages.
