[New: openFATE 314968] Windows support using NSIS and Nuget/Chocolatey
Feature added by: Matthias Mailänder (Mailaender) Feature #314968, revision 1 Title: Windows support using NSIS and Nuget/Chocolatey Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Matthias Mailänder (mailaender) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Both projects bring package management to Windows * http://chocolatey.org (http://chocolatey.org) for end users * https://nuget.org (https://nuget.org) for developers It would be cool to have Open Build Service support for this. Use Case: Matt wants to deploy his project OpenRA (http://www.open-ra.org) . Currently OBS only supports 1/3 of the supported platforms. He already has a custom build server that compiles a Setup.exe using NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net) , but it won't create a repository and is just a bunch of self-made bash scripts. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: While you can already cross-compile with OBS using Mingw32 or Mono, there is no way to spit out a Setup.exe yet. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314968
