Hi, Using dongsheng's gmp-6.1.1 (win32 threads, seh) build.
I'm trying to build mpfr (svn revision 10613) in the msys2 shell and getting hammered early on in the 'make' stage with: ####################################### make[1]: Entering directory 'C:/_64/comp/mpfr-10613/doc' restore=: && backupdir=".am$$" && \ am__cwd=`pwd` && CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && \ rm -rf $backupdir && mkdir $backupdir && \ if (C:/_64/msys64/usr/bin/sh.exe /c/_64/comp/mpfr-10613/missing makeinfo --version) >/dev/null 2>&1; then \ for f in mpfr.info mpfr.info-[0-9] mpfr.info-[0-9][0-9] mpfr.i[0-9] mpfr.i[0-9][0-9]; do \ if test -f $f; then mv $f $backupdir; restore=mv; else :; fi; \ done; \ else :; fi && \ cd "$am__cwd"; \ if C:/_64/msys64/usr/bin/sh.exe /c/_64/comp/mpfr-10613/missing akeinfo --enable-encoding -I . \ -o mpfr.info mpfr.texi; \ then \ rc=0; \ CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd .; \ else \ rc=$?; \ CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && \ $restore $backupdir/* `echo "./mpfr.info" | sed 's|[^/]*$||'`; \ fi; \ rm -rf $backupdir; exit $rc /c/_64/comp/mpfr-10613/missing: line 81: makeinfo: command not found WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. You might want to install the Texinfo package: <http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/> The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might want to install GNU make: <http://www.gnu.org/software/make/> make[1]: *** [Makefile:365: mpfr.info] Error 127 make[1]: Leaving directory 'C:/_64/comp/mpfr-10613/doc' make: *** [Makefile:484: all-recursive] Error 1 ####################################### Now, I'm not so sure that I really do need makeinfo, but my old msys shell seems to have it and I'm therefore guessing it must surely be available for msys2. At least, if I can install makeinfo, I will surely get past this error. However: ################################################# sisyphus@Owner-PC311012 MSYS /c/_64/comp/mpfr-10613 $ pacman -Ss makeinfo sisyphus@Owner-PC311012 MSYS /c/_64/comp/mpfr-10613 ################################################# (I guess it's possible that I had built makeinfo from source for that old msys shell.) This same mpfr source builds trivially in the msys shell using gcc-5.3.0 (posix threads, sjlj) but when I switch to the above 6.1.1 compiler I have no end of trouble (both in msys and msys2 shells). And the only way I could build gmp-6.1.1 with this gcc-6.1.1 compiler was to build in the msys2 shell - though, again gmp-6.1.1 built fine in the msys shell with gcc-5.3.0. Any pointers as to why this gcc-6.1.1 compiler is creating its own unique problems would also be gratefully received.
