Re: [Inkscape-devel] Cannot build Inkscape with newest Mingw, devlibs36

It's a known issue, compiling with gcc4.7 deosn't work and you need 4.6 (4.5 should also work) instead. Note that it's unrelated to the new devlibs. Compiling with r32 and gcc4.7 would also fail. > 11.

Some libs are downloaded directly from ftp.gnome.org, when they are provided as win32 binaries. It's the case for gtk, glib, and some dependencies. But other libs, such as glibmm, atkmm, gtkmm, cairo, cairomm, are local builds. We could of course compile everything from the source, but keep in mind that some libs are somewhat tricky to compile on Windows...
