With practically no experince packaging, I was able to create the two packages I needed in one sitting, by mostly copy-and-paste.

You can read my post on this list from a few days ago if you want details.
It's not so easy for wxWidgets unless you're planning to use wxGTK rather than the native W32 port. Fedora obviously doesn't ship a W32 wxWidgets as a native Fedora package, only wxGTK.
Sorry, you lost me here. I get that Fedora doesn't currently have a W32 wxWidgets package, thats why I was asking if anyone had an interest in my making such a package. What do you see as making it not so easy? The wx sources cross build very nicely with mingw, I've been doing it for years with a hand built mingw. The .spec for wxGTK with very few changes should work pretty much out the door with no patches or anything.
I'm new to packaging so maybe I am being naive? But getting a cross built wx for win32 is no problem with mingw.
