I noticed that a mingw64-libzip package is not available. I thought it might have been a small omission, so I tried to modify the spec file and build the mingw64 version. I am hitting a libtool error, which, I assume, is the reason why the mingw64 package is not available in the first place. I also tried using the latest upstream source, but with the same problem. I'm opening this bug int the hope of getting the situation resolved. Additional info: rpmbuild -ba fails with: RPM build errors: File not found by glob: /home/mrnuke/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/mingw-libzip-0.9-8.fc17.x86_64/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/*.dll File not found: /home/mrnuke/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/mingw-libzip-0.9-8.fc17.x86_64/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib/libzip.dll.a Looking further up, we see the following libtool warning: *** Warning: linker path does not have real file for library -lz. *** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when *** you link to this library. But I can only do this if you have a *** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have *** because I did check the linker path looking for a file starting *** with libz and none of the candidates passed a file format test *** using a file magic. Last file checked: /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib//libz.dll.a *** The inter-library dependencies that have been dropped here will be *** automatically added whenever a program is linked with this library *** or is declared to -dlopen it. *** Since this library must not contain undefined symbols, *** because either the platform does not support them or *** it was explicitly requested with -no-undefined, *** libtool will only create a static version of it. This is where I'm stuck.
Created attachment 657190 [details] [PATCH] to add mingw64 target (non-working) Added patch to .spec file. This patch triggers the problem.
Created attachment 657212 [details] [PATCH] Add mingw64 target The libtool that ships with the upstream source is too old, and fails to detect 64-bit DLLs. autoreconf --force --install fixes the problem.
