Re: Where's the "-libs" package for MinGW-w64?

There is only include/wx and include/msvc/wx... There's literally nothing
anywhere in there about GCC. Moreover, the file that includes setup.h
(platform.h) does so outside of an #ifdef so I can't even fix it. Removing
the include just causes other problems.

I just tried to build from source using the standard command line but
apparently my ar.exe and rnlib.exe are "bad images" and potentially not
built for Windows. Go figure what the hell that means. I'll try MSYS next
but I'm getting scared I'm not gonna be able to pull this off at all. I
swear this stuff used to be way easier.

Do any of you use CLion as an IDE? That's what I'm trying to get wxWidgets
working on
