In fact, if you svn update to revision 12982, then a build of the cmake software on MinGW/MSYS should no longer be available as an option so that you are forced to do the right thing on that platform which is to use the downloaded binary version from Kitware for all epa_builds. > Instead, build > the following individual targets for the -DBUILD_THE_BUILDTOOLS=ON > case: > > build_pkg-config > build_swig > build_iwidgets4.0 > build_iwidgets > > Those together build all the buildtools you are going to need.

Even though the build_all target no longer includes the build_cmake target on the MinGW/MSYS platform, please continue with the above (one buildtool at a time) approach to make sure you run into no issues the first time you do these builds on MinGW/MSYS. Of course, once you show that everything works, the build_all target is much more convenient. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
