Here's the extra data needed to build MinGW packages of a minimal set of Mixxx's dependencies.
I'm still trying to build jack-audio-connection-kit under MinGW; until then, Mixxx will use DirectSound.
I still want to build phonon for MinGW, but that has a lot of nasty dependencies (like KDE :-).

Attached is an archive that should get unpacked to your ~/rpmbuild directory. build.sh is a shell script that will build the dependencies for Fedora Core 18 as of today. The SPECS directory contains the original spec files from the non-MinGW packages; you can diff them with the MinGW spec files to see how I transformed each one into the MinGW variant.

I'm trying to get these packages submitted to Fedora, but based on the lengthy list of package-review requests that have never been looked at, it seems like Fedora is where package-requests go to die from neglect. So, outside of mixxx.org having its own yum repo, building Mixxx's MinGW dependencies may not get any more convenient than this.
