Comment 32 for bug 1088612

@jazzynico: You're talking about a gtk2 build of 0.92.x, right? (just to be sure as this bug is about GTK+ 3 in principle)

In fact my (32-bit) MSYS2 builds of 0.92.x (compiled on Windows 10 x64) seem to work just fine on a Windows XP x86 machine, see for example [1] which I just built.
Can you check if this version runs on your XP machine? Maybe we're lacking CMake build flags unless there's not another problem I'm not aware of...

> And I can also confirm that MSYS2 doesn't run on XP (the website claims it doesn't install, but I wanted to be sure it wasn't just an installer compatibility issue).

Can you clarify? Does it not work at all? As far as I know an NTFS volume is required for running MSYS, but from what I read it should also work on XP in principle.
