Re: a list of software compiled by completely free toolchain

The point is that in order for people using windows to come over to use Linux it is necessary to provide this software on Windows as well, making the transition easier. Now this software should be able to be compiled using a 100% free software toolchain like MinGW, [...] MinGW requi

Re: a list of software compiled by completely free toolchain

Python can be compiled by a 100% free software toolchain on GNU variants like GNU/Linux; on top of that Python runs and compile on 100% free systems lke gNewSense (http://gnewsense.org). So I do not understand the question. ___ gnu-misc-discuss mailing

Hello all, Python (if I am not right, I am sure there exist other examples of this case) as of now seems to still depend on Visual C being compiled on Windows and still causing problems being compiled with MinGW. Now, assuming that providing open source software on Windows doesn't give Windows an
