Hello,
Now that Mahogany compiles and works with cygwin I tried mingw/msys.
wxWindows compiled fine, but M configure aborts:
loading site script /etc/config.site
creating cache ./config.cache
configure: error: Sorry, this build system will not work on a
system without symbolic links. It depends on the ability
to create links to directories, so this is not something
that can be worked around.
MSYS supports links by copying, and 'ln -s dir1 dir2' works if dir1
exists, but fails if it does not. configure tests symbolic links by:
rm -f conftestdata
if ln -s X conftestdata 2>/dev/null
then rm -f conftestdata
else AC_MSG_ERROR([Sorry, this build system will not work on a
system without symbolic links...
After creating X configure continued. As I understand getting rid
of symbolic links means rewriting build system?
Then configure fails:
checking for crypt... no
checking for crypt in -lcrypt... no
configure: error: Cannot find crypt function.
It appears that the c library does not contain it, nor is libcrypt
installed on your system. It is needed for password authentication,
so before compiling Mahogany, you need to install libcrypt. You
can download the source for a suitable libcrypt from the Mahogany
ftp server (ftp://ronnie.phy.hw.ac.uk/pub/Mahogany/Libraries).
Is crypt really needed on Windows?
