[Mingw-users] mingw-get

[Steve C. <ste...@gm...>]

Is there any documentation available for mingw-get, the new automated 
installer? Specifically, I'm interested in what the final feature set 
will be.

I've never liked the old GUI installer, mainly because I am most 
interested in being able to install a particular version of MinGW on 
multiple computers. Currently, I have a moderately complex batch file 
that uncompresses all the different packages into a directory and then 
compresses the entire installation into one file. Then, when I want to 
deploy that version of different computers, I have a simple batch file 
that will uncompress the installation onto the hard disk. Will I be able 
to use the new installer to install particular versions of all the 
different packages with one command? That would be far easier than 
meticulously tweaking my batch file for every release!

My homebrewed batch file "installer" also contains gdb and mingw-utils. 
Will these packages be available in the mingw-get installer?
