What I ever I have done for it, like: Cd /cygdrive/k/huskysrc/smapi Or copied it to /src/src/huskysrc Cd /usr/src/huskysrc/smapi Make Make install And it ends by error for ld not found some files and others. Output from cygwin terminal by the error: gcc 1stchar.o -o 1stchar /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.7.3/../../../libcygwin.a(libcmain.o): I funktionen "main": /usr/src/debug/cygwin-1.7.25-1/winsup/cygwin/lib/libcmain.c:39: undefined reference to `WinMain@16' collect2: fejl: ld returnerede afslutningskoden 1 <builtin>: recipe for target '1stchar' failed make: *** [1stchar] Error 1
And it look like error in some cygwin files. Regards, Gert Andersen -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
