You have to rename "times.h" into "time.h" in line 49 (see point 4.3 of my tutorial and also the message by Joe Vender on gnupg-devel mailing list: <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-devel/2006-June/022975.html> If you do not want to patch the source files, you must use MinGW Runtime 3.9... :-/ ... until a couple of "ifdef"s will be added to random.c in the official source tarball. ;-) [...] > 3) Now head to the GnuWin32 project (also at SourceForge). > Download and install into the MinGW root: > a) bzip2-1.0.3-1-bin.zip > b) bzip2-1.0.3-1-lib.zip > c) gettext-0.14.4-bin.zip > d) gettext-0.14.4-dep.zip > e) gettext-0.14.4-lib.zip > f) libiconv-1.9.2-1-bin.zip > g) libiconv-1.9.2-1-lib.zip > h) readline-5.0-bin.zip > i) readline-5.0-lib.zip > j) zlib-1.2.3-bin.zip > k) zlib-1.2.3-lib.zip > > The current version numbers may differ from those above. > Alternatively, you could download the source and build these > yourself using your just installed MinGW/MSYS software. It is better to avoid readline, because it may give problems. That's why I took it away completely from the new versions of my tutorial. By the way, not all libraries are required. If you are performing a "minimal" build (like in this case) and you are interested to English language only, only bzip2 is really required. > 4) Goto http://curl.haxx.se/download.html and download and install > the current curl (7.15.4) IIRC.

Which is actually the only one "extra" step in the minimal build... ;-) ... and which I hope someday will be included in the official tarball, allowing me to remove 2 images from my tutorial! ;-)) -- | ICQ UIN: 109517158 Carlo Luciano Bianco | Home page: <http://clbianco.altervista.org/> ______________________|________________________________________________ GnuPG RSAv4 4096 - Fingerprint:FA68CF697EA63865AAFA805F68703AD40609D743 _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
