Description Ryan Pavlik 2008-01-09 17:57:38 UTC

I'm using the latest MinGW and MSYS 1.0.1.  Untarring the distributed tarball gives an error 13 when it concludes, but it does appear to work.

(I just tried the 0.10.8 tarball, and I am getting the same build error but without the tar error.)

I configured with ./configure --prefix=/mingw, then I ran make
 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -fno-strict-aliasing -MT fribidi_utils.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/fribidi_utils.Tpo -c fribidi_utils.c  -DDLL_EXPORT -DPIC -o .libs/fribidi_utils.o
fribidi_utils.c:304: error: failure in redeclaration of 'fribidi_is_char_rtl': dllimport'd symbol lacks external linkage.
fribidi_utils.c:304: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
make[1]: *** [fribidi_utils.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/src/fribidi-0.10.8'
make: *** [all] Error 2


If you need more information, please let me know.  I am working on getting this compiled for use in the TRUNK version of AbiWord.

I actually can't get any version to build, even back to 0.10.4.  This same error occurs in 0.10.7 through 0.10.9, with different errors prior.
