#132 missing if_nametoindex in iphlpapi.dll under winxp
under windows xp, from my software i got the error that it didn't find the function if_nametoindex in iphlpapi.dll (that it is a function available from windows vista https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb408409%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)
according to dependency walker that problem seems to be libgio
in gsocket.c i found that libgio have an own implementation of if_nametoindex if it don't find it
could you rebuild libglib using if_nametoindex gio implementation?
send patch for building it please.
i just saw that you patched glib2 to always enable the use of the windows function (patch 0026-define-HAVE_IF_NAMETOINDEX.patch)
instead to remain compatible with windows xp it must use the gio implementation
so you must always undefine HAVE_IF_NAMETOINDEX
unfortunately i cannot rebuild glib2 with the attached patch; i got the following errors (not related to the patch)

where am I doing wrong?
Read please errors before post it. You try configure sources in already configured folder. You need remove previously build folder.
i read the errors!!!
how can i remove previously build folder during makepkg-mingw process?
i simply run makepkg-mingw inside MINGW-packages/mingw-w64-glib2

First what I do when have some problems with any tool I read it help. Maybe if everyone go to read help it solve many questions.
makepkg-mingw --help
See "-C" and "-c" options.
i got the error the first time i run makepkg-mingw
and then i removed each files/directories not in git

This is mean that you in the past already try build glib2, it fail and you have build folder.
no, i'm sure that it was the first time
in any case, i removed "not in git files/directories" again and now it worked (!?)
and it worked also the patch attached (now i can rum my software also under winxp); but i don't know if it conflicts with 0026-define-HAVE_IF_NAMETOINDEX.patch, because i don't know the reason of 00026 patch
how can we do? can we have an other glib2 package compatible with xp that conflicts with glib2, so i can decide wich i want?
We need have only one package. Create pull request and I see if I can build it.
