I was getting the same error, though I've had some success with

CGO_ENABLED=1
GOOS=windows
CC="x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc"
go build -v -ldflags -H=windowsgui
taken from here but now I am getting the errors below:

After going on a hunt to find the required packages I found the needed files here.
The mingw packages for libadwaita
and and gobject-introspection
do not seem to exist for Fedora.
After placing the package in the appropriate location I managed to compile my app.
As a small sidenote: bcryptprimitives.dll
was missing when I tried to run the app with Wine. It appears, this dll is only included with Wine 9 and seems to be required see here.
After going on a hunt to find the required packages I found the needed files here.
How did you install the corresponding packages?
I didn't have any problem with libadwaita after extracting the .tar.zst file in /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/
But with gobject-introspection it was not the case...
github.com/diamondburned/gotk4/pkg/core/gerror
# github.com/diamondburned/gotk4/pkg/core/gerror
# [pkg-config --cflags -- glib-2.0 gobject-introspection-1.0]
Package gobject-introspection-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gobject-introspection-1.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'gobject-introspection-1.0', required by 'virtual:world', not found
So I decided to do this:
find /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/ -name "gobject-introspection-1.0.pc"
# /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig/gobject-introspection-1.0.pc
ln /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig/gobject-introspection-1.0.pc /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib/pkgconfig
But I get this error
github.com/diamondburned/gotk4/pkg/core/gerror
# github.com/diamondburned/gotk4/pkg/core/gerror
# [pkg-config --cflags -- glib-2.0 gobject-introspection-1.0]
Package dependency requirement 'glib-2.0 >= 2.78.0' could not be satisfied.
Package 'glib-2.0' has version '2.77.1', required version is '>= 2.78.0'
Package dependency requirement 'gobject-2.0 >= 2.78.0' could not be satisfied.
Package 'gobject-2.0' has version '2.77.1', required version is '>= 2.78.0'
But I fixed it by modifying the file /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig/gobject-introspection-1.0.pc
Changing these lines from this: Requires: glib-2.0 >= 2.78.0, gobject-2.0 >= 2.78.0
to this Requires: glib-2.0 >= 2.77.1, gobject-2.0 >= 2.77.1
I just want to know how safe it is to do that, or if the program will even work?
Or if I downloaded a wrong package that's why I had to do all the extra processing?
I leave this to leave more or less documented the process of how to get to this... in theory you just have to download and extract these 3 packages in /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/
And install these packages through dnf
Right now I already have a docker image to be able to automate it so... it would already be
Why not use MSYS2?
Why not use MSYS2?
MSYS2 compiles for Windows on Windows, mingw32 compiles for Windows on Linux. Running a separate machine/VM with windows, specially in a CI environment, is extra hassle which can be avoided by just cross-compiling.
Oh, interesting. That's a use case that I've never considered, unfortunately.
Usually cgo usually compiles correctly with these environment variables
But when I compile the program I get this
I get almost the same error with gcc
First I thought it was something about missing mingw-gtk dependencies, but in a docker container with those dependencies I get the same error.
I get the same error as this issue but the difference is that I am on a 64 bit architecture.
