In reality, inkview should not reuse every file from Inkscape, just those it needs to work. It only shows that our codebase isn't very modular and there are many unnecessary dependencies.
I tried using MSYS on Windows to build Glib, but I failed at pkg-config, which complains about unknown escape charaters - probably a too-old g++ version.
Why do you need to build Glib? Isn't it included in our libs bundle?
CMake on the other hand can only use MSVC projects on Windows,
Please don't spread misinformation with such certainty. :-) CMake works just fine with MinGW. 2geom currently uses CMake and our normal Inkscape win32 libs and compiler bundles to build on Windows. Now, I'm not saying that the CMake setup to build Inkscape will work. It won't because it hasn't been finished.
