Dear fellow hackers, with the imminent merge of https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/topic:gpg4libre-win32 into master (and hopefully in time for 6.0), Windows builders will need a minimal version of gcc, to satisfy gpgme's windres requirement. This is not ideal, in theory bearing the risk of external packages accidentally picking up gcc instead of our gcc-wrapper; then again it's part of the lode setup since 2015, so hopefully the impact should be minimal. In preparation I've just updated the Windows CI builders; if you're building on Windows or running a tinderbox, please check if you already have gcc ('which gcc' returning a path to the binary), failing that: re-run cygwin setup and select the 'gcc-g++' package. Running install_cygwin.ps1 from here [1] will do the same, or you setup apt-cyg for future terminal-based updates [2][3] and do a 'apt-cyg install gcc-g++'. Sorry for the hassle, all the best, -- Thorsten [1] https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/lode#Running_the_script [2] https://github.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg/ [3] https://github.com/kou1okada/apt-cyg
