[Mingw-cross-env-list] Trying to compile shared - libidn fails

[Dennis Volodomanov]

Hello all,

I'm now trying to compile shared libs, I've changed all "--disable-shared" to 
"--enable-shared" (and in some cases added "--disable-static", if configure 
failed).

I'm having a problem with building libidn. It gives me the following error:

'i686-pc-mingw32-gcc' -W -Wall -Werror -ansi -pedantic '.src/libidn-test.c' -o 
'/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/bin/test-libidn.exe' 
`'i686-pc-mingw32-pkg-config' libidn --cflags --libs`
I686-pc-mingw32-gcc: error: unrecognized option '-R'


Looking through the log I see this:

/bin/sh ../../libtool --tag=CC  --mode=link i686-pc-mingw32-gcc  -std=gnu99 
-fvisibility=hidden -g -O2  -no-undefined -L/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib 
-liconv -R/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib 
-L/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib -lintl 
-L/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib -liconv 
-R/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib -L/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib 
-liconv -R/opt/mingw/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib -o libgnu.la c-ctype.lo 
c-strcasecmp.la c-strncasecmp.lo striconv.lo strverscmp.lo


Running "i686-pc-mingw32-gcc --help" shows that there's no "-R" parameter...

Thank you in advance for your ideas!

Best regards,
