Hi, I hadn't built Geany for a while, I found the MSYS2 build instructions with autotools. Libtool seems incredibly slow - mainly for linking but even compiling is slow. I've tried disabling AV to no effect. Are there any simple workarounds? The modify-rebuild cycle is painful now.
Long time no hear. I can't help with Windows build speeds but can say that the Linux build does not appear to be significantly slower AFAICT.
No. By default libtool might build object files twice, one static and one shared, just in case it might need both, but I disabled it ages ago as we don't need both (https://github.com/geany/geany/commit/723f4302e0d7bbd938c789b9730366f7c7e030...). Maybe check if libtool on Windows doesn't enforce something stupid like that.
But it might also be that MSYS2 is slow or something, but that Thomas might know more about.
