Hello everybody,
I submitted a merge request of my Inkscape branch yesterday. Thanks to Marc it has already found its way into trunk - big thank you for the quick review.
Great news!! Thanks Sebastian and Marc!
The branch I submitted now has full support for compiling Inkscape on Windows with 32-Bit and 64-Bit environments. It also supports out of source builds and should also work with Unix llike command lines such as Cygwin and MSYS. After weeks of investigation I managed to get locales to work and have an executable icon along with all application icons.
Actually, the only thing that it distinguishes from a btool build now is that it does not (yet) produce the inkscape.com console binary. However, that should not be a big deal. In all other regards it should be ready for testing and packaging. I already updated the Wiki page with the new compilation instructions.
Again, thank you Marc and hopefully we're a step closer now to a 0.92 release on all platforms.
