I'm a bit hesitant regarding these for now. At the one hand, they should be merged with corresponding gcc/binutils along with all cross-** packages. At the other hand, these are still useful as separate metapackages, otherwise the information on which repos have mingw support is hidden. We could both, but it's not possible to attach a package to multiple metapackages yet (see #163). I guess I'll leave this issue for later.
From https://github.com/repology/repology/issues/383 by @mojca:
The MinGW packages for MacPorts are split in a weird way. There's
mingw-w64
which is some kind of a meta-package and is at the same version as*-w64-mingw32-crt
,*-w64-mingw32-headers
(and soon*-w64-mingw32-winpthreads
).Then
*-w64-mingw32-gcc
is basicallygcc
cross-compiler. And*-w64-mingw32-binutils
is basicallybinutils
for cross-compiler. I don't know against which packages these are supposed to be compared and I'm not sure how to write the rules for such a split, but it would be nice to correct this.(Plus there's a bunch of abandonware
i386-mingw32-*
.)
