how to edit the code to add something

with notepad... --CodeSquid 23:02, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

If something doesn't work, report the details so that the problem can be solved instead of ignored.

I get the following error when running make for Libiconv:

$ make -j3

Try adding --disable-fast-install to the configure arguments. --CodeSquid 21:51, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

No luck with that. Still getting the same errors. --Trevorparker 04:11, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

~~Yeah. Did I screw up? --Trevorparker 19:33, 11 May 2009 (UTC)~~

Run as administrator. Got it. --Trevorparker 20:00, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Got through Libiconv. Tried make -j3 on gettext and I get this error:

Hmpf nothing seems to work on crap Vista, try upgrading to XP. Or just turn off UAC and log into your system as Administrator. --CodeSquid 14:05, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

August 27, 2010[edit]

--Netmaster There's a number of errors on the downloading of individual components, especially for MSYS. It looks like there's been a change in the structure of the folders. I've included the amended list:

MinGW[edit]

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS/gmp/gmp-5.0.1-1/libgmp-5.0.1-1-msys-1.0.13-dll-10.tar.lzma/download

MSYS[edit]

Also, I've just set my compliation flags to my profile but when starting the "Libidn", I can't "cd /usr/src" as there's no such directory?! "cd /usr/" just takes me to the root, so does the "src" folder need to be created manually? As you can see, I'm new to this game but have played with this in the past and know that it's little things like this that need to be configured correctly from the start otherwise all bets are off!

So just went ahead and created the "src" folder, all's looking good thus far, until I get a libidn error:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `gl/libgnu.la', needed by `libidn.la'.  Stop

My notes [20/05/2011][edit]

cleaned up 03/11/2011

1) If you use the current MSYS/MinGW components listed on this guide, then the final executable needs "libstdc++-6.dll" and "libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll" to run.
So you either have to edit the installer script in "data/install.nsi.in" or just use a proper statically linked GCC (which is not part of this guide atm)

2) I found out that "mingwm10.dll" is not needed, at least not if you use a newer gcc/mingw.

3) Do NOT use libgcrypt 1.5.0, it's causing problems for me. I tried it with gnutls-2.10.5 and 2.12.12.

4) In order to build gnutls-2.12.12 use the following command:

./configure --disable-shared --enable-static --disable-nls --disable-cxx --disable-guile --with-libgcrypt --without-p11-kit

5) If you get errors when running "configure" for Filezilla regarding gnutls, you might need to compile and install zlib and add "-lz" in your "libgnutls-config" file in the "gnutls_libs" line.

How to build and install zlib isn't part of this guide since using the environment listed in this guide as of today, zlib is not needed.

6) The versions that I used were the following:

gnutls-2.10.5
libgcrypt-1.4.6
libgpg-error-1.10
libidn-1.22
sqlite-autoconf-3070900
wxWidgets-2.8.12
GCC 4.6.1, with recent MSYS/MinGW
