[sylpheed:35684] Re: Sylpheed compile error on Windows/MinGW

[Ho Sy Tan]

Hello,

I try to compile Sylpheed on Windows/MinGW but have some errors.
My system is built reference
http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/wiki/index.php?Sylpheed% 2FWin32.

My system is as follows:
- Windows XP Pro SP2.
- I installed the MinGW + MSYS (run mingw-get-inst-20120426.exe from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-inst/mingw-get-inst-20120426/
with
the option to upgrade the latest package, MSYS, MSYS Development Tool Kit).
- GTK (gtk +-bundle_2.24.10-20120208_win32 from
http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php).

I've ran following commands:

$ cd / home/sylpheed-3.3.0 /
$. / configure

At this point, I think everything is OK.
The output is as follows:


...
...
...
sylpheed 3.3.0

GnuPG         : no
JPilot        : no
LDAP          : no
OpenSSL       : no
iconv         : yes
compface      : no
IPv6          : yes
GtkSpell      : no
Oniguruma     : no
GThread       : yes

The binary will be installed in /usr/local/bin

Configure finished, type 'make' to build.

I tried to make:
$ make

I get an error at this step, the output is as follows:

...

...

If I try to makewin32, this output:
$ ./makewin32.sh
configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
configure: WARNING: invalid host type: Tan/dist

recog
nized
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub Sy failed

Please give me some solutions for this error.

Thanks in advance.
