Re: [Geany-Devel] Building geany using msys2 on Windows 10

[Lex Trotman]

Attila, the windows build environment is completely different to the
Linux one so your comment is irrelevant.  Setting up the environment
is the difficult part for most people.

Also you can just give configure an argument --enable-gtk3 rather than
editing configure.ac, also on the current Geany master only gtk3 is
supported so you don't even need that.

Cheers
Lex

Re: [Geany-Devel] Building geany using msys2 on Windows 10

[Attila]

Hi,

I do not know the Windows compiler environment, but on Linux I switched
back the Gtk3 to Gtk2 successfully. Just change the 'configure.ac' at
line 79 to `[enable_gtk2=yes])`. And of course install the Gtk2-dev
packages.

You can see it (and my CI solution) here:
