Subject: Re: Prerelease of LyX 1.3.7_5 for Windows
So I think the configure file has changed between versions and
if the configure file implements cases of a path with spaces the
fundamental problem might be there. I'll compare the configuration
files for 1.3.6 and 1.3.7. As you may have also read sometimes
the presence of absence of a "/" at the end of a path is critical.
On a hunch, I tried changing both sh.exe and sed.exe to Win95
compatibility mode without any luck.
I compared the two configure files, lyx1.3.6 and Lyx1.3.7pre5
and the only difference in content I could tell was
\\path_prefix "C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\Python24;C:\\texmf\\miktex\\bin;
C:\\Perl\\bin;C:\\gs8.51\\gs8.51\\bin;C:\\ImageMagick"
EOF 1.3.6 stable, configure file
--------------------------------------------
The 1.3.7pre5 configure contains more entries and this is the same as what
gets written to LyX 1.3.7pre5 Path prefix after I run 'sh.exe configure'
later.
-------------------------------------------
\\path_prefix "C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\Python24;
C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\Python24;C:\\texmf\\miktex\\bin;
C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\Python24;C:\\texmf\\miktex\\bin;
C:\\Perl\\bin;C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\Python24;
C:\\texmf\\miktex\\bin;C:\\Perl\\bin;C:\\gs8.51\\gs8.51\\bin;
C:\\msys\\1.0\\bin;C:\\Python24;C:\\texmf\\miktex\\bin;C:\\Perl\\bin;
C:\\gs8.51\\gs8.51\\bin;C:\\ImageMagick"
EOF 1.3.7pre5, configure file
