I seem to have windres, actually, though under a slightly different
name. It's part of the mingw32-binutils package, but is installed as
/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-windres. There is code in CMakeLists.txt to
set this, and it seems to work:
build/CMakeFiles/3.11.0/CMakeRCCompiler.cmake:set(CMAKE_RC_COMPILER
"/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-windres")
But it doesn't seem to get used anywhere.
I guess all we need to do now is figure out where and how to invoke this
to build a resource file from /development/cmake/lyx.rc. The link that
Jürgen found suggests we need somthing like:
${CMAKE_RC_COMPILER} -O coff -i development/cmake/lyx.rc -o lyx.coff
and then to link the lyx.coff file into the executable.
