This is a bug in the bundle, IMO. > 1'/ I guess that the same is true of mingw and cygwin, but this is > less of a problem since our official builds do not depend on it (and I > could not find the instructions in our main directory BTW). I don't know what "official" means here and what "it" is. There are instructions for both mingw and cygwin in the main directory, but I never followed them because I use autotools for both mingw and cygwin and cross-compile for mingw using cygwin tools. Everything works OOTB for cygwin and almost OOTB for mingw, as I only need to slightly tweak intl/Makefile after configuring, due to some missing sublanguage codes in mingw (SUBLANG_BENGALI_BANGLADESH, SUBLANG_PUNJABI_PAKISTAN, and SUBLANG_ROMANIAN_MOLDOVA, specifically). And you are right, this is no problem at all. > 2/ the fact that --without-x has to be specified explicitly is > artificial. Everything is artificial. -- Enrico
