To clarify - After searching for a way to build KMM on Windows, I ended
up with "emerge". It will (with quite a few fixes since it is a bit out
of date) download and build everything needed to build KMM on a pure
Windows system, e.g. mingw, gcc, msys, QT, KDE, libraries, and KMM. The
emerge scripts create build folders based upon the names of the script
files. It looks like the script file names are not always maintained and
many script file names have versions and dates that are different from
what they actually download and build. The script in emerge for KMM
built version 4.6.4 but was still named "kmymoney-4.6.1-20110918.py". I
modified the script to pull the master branch from git (that option was
in the original script but was not used) but I didn't change the script
file name (a new script name would disconnect it from the emerge git
repository). So the git master branch is getting built in the folder
tree containing the name "kmymoney-4.6.1-20110918". I am not mixing
versions. Sorry for the confusion.


OK, Jeff.  Thanks for that info.  A little knowledge....

Allan

Yes, the "emerge --cleanbuild" removed the entire KMM build folder tree.

Next time I do a build I will capture the actual error messages and file
a bug report.

Thanks.
  Jeff.
