Frederic,

I broken something in Windows build workflow, trying to include a
cross-compiled version of libgphoto2. It's fixed now, but without
libgphoto2.
 I also reported a broken package in MXE project.

The Windows builds will be pushed at usual place this evening if all is
fine, not before, i'm not in my office today.

Best

Gilles Caulier
