aheinecke changed the status of T5302: autogen.sh --build-w32 fails with "configure: convert is missing" from Wontfix to Resolved.

Thanks, I try to keep the README always up to date with the debian depenencies as I find this useful myself without running configure multiple times to find all the dependencies.

This won't work in the context of buildroot as we're passing --host="arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi" to avoid the following build failure:

gniibe added a comment to T5293: gpg-error.m4 should search gpg-error.pc under the paths of gpgrt-config.

For other libraries, like libgcrypt, it is mostly OK with old gpg-error.m4, because those libraries don't depend on new libgpg-error features.

doug added a comment to T5302: autogen.sh --build-w32 fails with "configure: convert is missing".

No question a list like this is bound to be incomplete, but the argument "the README can only tell about those which we don't expect to be installed on a developer's box" does not seem to apply to the other items already on the list. For instance build-essentials and automake are almost certainly on every developers machine already.

werner closed T5302: autogen.sh --build-w32 fails with "configure: convert is missing" as Wontfix.

There is a message telling you what is missing. Thus I can not consider this a bug. There are just too many dependencies which are required for cross-compiling that the README can only tell about those which we don't expect to be installed on a developer's box.

Could you tell what is the status of this ticket? Is it planned for the development?
For some users usage is problematic when there are other readers recognized, provided by the OS or hardware platform, and ordered before the target device which in turn blocks access to it.

ffontaine added a comment to T5296: libgpg-error: build failure without threads.

Because, threads are optional on uclibc as threads are not supported by all embedded targets.
libgpg-error was building perfectly fine without threads until version 1.40 as all pthread calls were protected by USE_POSIX_THREADS.
Should I understand from your answer that threads are now mandatory?
