Subject: | bug#10665: 24.0.93; Building for MS Windows using MinGW encounters a build problem in ../emacs-24.0.93/src/makefile |

This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org. Please check that the From: line contains a valid email address. After a delay of up to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address. Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators for other languages. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give a recipe starting from `emacs -Q': The problem is in the generated ../emacs-24.0.93/src/makefile, which has the following target and associated rule: globals.h: gl-stamp @cmd /c rem true In an MinGW/MSYS bash shell, this rule invokes the MS Windows cmd.exe command interpreter, which issues a prompt and then does not exit, thereby halting the build. The output from make looks like this, at this point: echo timestamp > gl-stamp Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp. c:\emacs-24.0.93\src> Entering “exit” at the prompt causes the Windows cmd.exe to exit resulting in the make build resuming. (NOTE: a build of the candidate release for Emacs 23.4 does not have the problem.) It appears that the above rule for the target globals.h is an error. FYI, I invoked configure.bat like this cmd /c “configure.bat --cflags –fno-omit-frame-pointer –-cflags –IC:/usr/include” within a MinGW/MSYS bash shell. It reported the following: Checking for 'cp'... Checking for 'rm'... Checking whether 'gcc' is available... Checking whether gcc requires '-mno-cygwin'...
