Is this correctly titled? How does these changes - which target the MacOS operating system help to "fix Windows builds"?
As it is it is pending mudlet/infrastructure's approval not mine.
Updating vcpkg clearly needed some extra dependencies installed on the osx side of things, hence the extra step to install them. But the motivation in updating vcpkg was still to fix windows builds. Looks good to me. |
Brief overview of PR changes/additions
Update the vcpkg ports we used from November 2020 to the latest as of today.
Motivation for adding to Mudlet
Fixed Windows builds to work, which got broken because
mingw-w64-i686-pkg-config-0.29.2-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
was not available in any download mirrors anymore.Other info
It's a concern that vcpkg is limited by 3rd party mirrors like this. It also took a long while to get to this stage - all vcpkg versions inbetween were broken by various issues. Thankfully the vcpkg team is quick and on top of fixing them.
