[GNC-dev] Windows build server

Tue Mar 26 17:06:50 EDT 2019

I am still having trouble and I think it is down to my build system being
to up to date and maybe incompatible library versions, looking at a the
files from a nightly build, they seem to be older so I am wondering if that
is my problem.

Is it possible that some one with console access run the following command
that lists all the installed packages to a text file.

pacman -Qqe > pkglist.txt

I can then use this to install the same versions, it may be worth while
adding it to the build script for future reference.

Regards,
   Bob
