[Gnuwin32-users] Compliation of gettext under mingw/msys

[James M. D. <mdu...@ya...>]

I have now gotten gettext to compile.
I have relocated the prefix to c:\mingw\

Here were the changes :

1. Here are the cleaned sources:
http://introspector.sourceforge.net/dia/gettext-0.10.40.tar.gz

2. Here is the diff to the published sources
http://introspector.sourceforge.net/dia/gettext-0.10.40.diff

The problem was the configuration of the ilibconv,

Here is my runconfig.sh that replaces the makefiles.mingw
------------------------------------------------------------
rm config.cache
rm config.status
rm config.log
export CPPFLAGS=-Ic:/mingw/libiconv/include
export LDFLAGS=-Lc:/mingw/libiconv/lib
sh -x ./configure --prefix=c:/mingw/gettext --enable-static
--host=i386-pc-mingw32 --build=i386-pc-mingw32 --target=i386-pc-mingw32
--with-libiconv-prefix=c:/mingw/libiconv --with-iconv=c:/mingw/ >
debug.txt 2>&1

Note that I have not been able to figure this bit out,
so I just hacked it.

Following you will find the debug.txt if you are interested:
it is too big for email, you will find it here :
