Would it be possible to enable cross-compilation ?
See original GitHub issueI would like some guidance on what would be necessary to use mingw-64 to build a Windows executable from a linux machine.
We have many go
builds that enjoy a simple linux-based ci builds to produce Windows executables. We would probably be interested in the same for nuitka --standalone
from a linux machine.
I have come across this: https://www.freelists.org/post/nuitka-dev/Patch-Added-crosscompilation-support-to-nuitka, but it seemingly has not received any feedback. This patch seems to point to a relatively easy thing to support.
Am I correct in my assumptions ? What would be needed for such a use-case ?

I’m also interested in using this to cross compile python distributions.
any updates on cross-compiling .py with nuitka?
