This is gpg4win - the GUI Installer Builder for W32. Instructions: ============= 1. Download the source and binary packages that are required to build the installer: $ cd packages $ sh download.sh [...] $ cd .. 2. Configure the source tree for cross compilation: $ configure --host=i586-mingw32msvc 3. Build the installer: $ make The installer will be made available in two files: src/gpg4win-X.Y.Z.exe src/gpg4win-src-X.Y.Z.exe Adding new packages to the installer: ===================================== This requires editing a couple of files; we might eventually automate some of tehse tasks. Here is a short run up: 1. Add constants for the package FOO into include/config.nsi.in . 2. Create 2 new installer scripts, named src/inst-foo.nsi and uninst-foo.nsi . 3. Add foo to one the variables gpg4win_bpgks (if foo should not be build be the gpg4win) or gpg4win_spkgs (if foo should be build by gpg4win) in src/Makefile.am 4. Add FOO to inst-sections.nsi. 5. Add detection of packages to configure.ac. Check out the available macros in m4/gpg4win.m4. Depending on the way an upstream package is packaged, you might need to write a new macro. 6. Add download information to packages/download.sh. Then run the usual "./autogen.sh" to create the actual configure file and run configure as described above.
