I see daily builds like
http://build.openvpn.net/downloads/snapshots/openvpn-install-master-20160607214911-63b3e000c9-x86_64.exe
I used to think they are built with "build-snapshot":
https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-build/blob/master/windows-nsis/build-snapshot
however, when I run it,
....
tap-windows
Fixup libtool files

Fixup libtool files
Build openvpn
../generic/build: line 284: cd:
/home/ilia/openvpn-build/windows-nsis/tmp/build-i686/openvpn-2.3.11:
No such file or directory
FATAL: cd openvpn
FATAL: build i686 >&2
FATAL: build-complete >&2
[ilia@localhost windows-nsis]$
somehow it tries to find openvpn-2.3.11 instead of master.
how am I supposed to run that script ?
The build-snapshot script is a simple wrapper around build-complete,
which is why it failed. You basically need to use
OPENVPN_VERSION=2.3_git build-snapshot <args>
I've managed to build snapshot by hands (I found guide on wiki)
however, I used to think that I either run that script and it builds or
it says me "please specify OPENVPN_VERSION..."
I'll try to make a patch if I would have time
Excellent idea, in particular because this tends to hit people quite
often. Basically you could either check that the value of
OPENVPN_VERSION matches the value in version.m4, or even better, set the
value from version.m4 automatically when using build-snapshot.
