No. .../sys-root/ is a foreign system's mapping onto the host system, i.e. what is "/" under a native MinGW is /usr/i686-pc-ming32/sys-root/ under Fedora. The "mingw" directory in ../sys-root/mingw is the standard directory mingw uses natively to install in Windows and can't easily be remove. > Are there going to be any files in %{_prefix}/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root > that you need the additional /mingw there? Hardly, but ... that's how things are supposed to be installed ;) You could network mount this mingw/-directory under Windows, should this be possible :) Ralf -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
