Hi All, Sorry for my confusing post.
I am attempting to compile gnucash under Windows XP. >From Windows Explorer I deleted C:\Soft. I downloaded msys-1.0.10.exe into Z:\GNUCash_Downloads ( NAS drive) I installed msys-1.0.10 into C:\Soft\msys with no post install. I downloaded wget-1.9.1-mingwPORT.tar into Z:\GNUCash_Downloads I installed QT 4,2,3 I started the MSYS command line shell and then exited. I did a svn update of http://svn.gnucash.org/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32 into c:\Soft\msys\home\gnucash\packaging. I started the MSYS command line shell gnuc...@elshadai ~/Packaging $ less custom.sh ----> GLOBAL_DIR=C:\\soft\\msys DOWNLOAD_DIR=/Z/GNUCash_Downloads AQBANKING_WITH_QT=yes # set -x QTDIR=/c/QT/4.2.3 gnuc...@elshadai ~ $ cd Packaging gnuc...@elshadai ~/Packaging $ install.sh ############################################################ ### Wget ############################################################ already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### MSYS DTK ############################################################ msys dtk already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### Unzip ############################################################ unzip already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### MinGW ############################################################ mingw already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### RegEx ############################################################ regex already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### Readline ############################################################ readline already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### ActivePerl (intltool) ############################################################ ActivePerl already installed. skipping. ############################################################ ### Autotools ############################################################ Extracting autoconf-2.60.tar.bz2 ... done Extracting automake-1.9.6.tar.bz2 ... done building autoconf... checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether /bin/sh -n is known to work... yes checking for expr... /bin/expr checking for gm4... no checking for gnum4... no checking for m4... /bin/m4 checking whether m4 supports frozen files... yes checking for perl... no configure: error: perl is not found End of msys command shell output.
