Hello,
First time building on Cygwin. The version I’m using is v1.7 (fresh installs). GCC version is 4.3.4 20090804 (release) 1.
FWIW, I’m able to build other (open source) projects using GNU autotools. Cygwin doesn’t seem to distribute v1.5 anymore, except in support of Win95/98/ME.
I’ve tried this on both Windows XP 32-bit and Vista 64-bit. The build fails at the configure step with the error: “Your compiler (gcc) does not produce Win32 executables!”
Any pointers?
Thanks.
