Hi,
Been trying to build GnuCash for Windows XP following the instructions in the
.../packaging//win32/README. I am not much of a Unix power user/programmer so
my discussion below may be trivial with most of you here. I surely hope so for
my own benefit.
The first problem I encountered was that some of the URLs in defined in the
default.sh file are no longer updated, so I went on to create my custom.sh as
follows:
##################################################################################AQBANKING_WITH_QT=no
set_default ACTIVE_PERL_URL
"http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePerl/releases/5.10.1.1007/ActivePerl-5.10.1.1007-MSWin32-x86-291969.zip";

Proceeding to compile the code produces the problem below:

Please help.
Best and Thanks,
Ronald
