Re: pspp-dev Digest, Vol 58, Issue 4

[Michel Boaventura]

I was able to compile version 0.6.1-rc2 on mingw and windows xp.
The only problem that I found is that the Makefile doesn't link
libregex.la with psppire, and
psppire.exe doesnt compile, complain about some missing references. To
make it work, I add the line:
    /mingw/lib/libregex.la \
on the begining of:
am_src_ui_gui_psppire_OBJECTS =  \

and it compiled. But I think that it's a problem of mingw, and not of pspp.
