Uhh, that's a bit hard - I only build GIMP myself, and use binaries
from OpenSuSE build service
(http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/) for all
dependencies (which I normally update before each build).

I've given up trying to manage dependencies myself a long time ago. I
use the following two scripts to get them automatically:
<http://eternallybored.org/misc/gimp/grab-stuff.sh>
<https://github.com/mkbosmans/download-mingw-rpm>
