[Mono-devel-list] mono build problems

[Richard Parratt]

I'm trying to build mono under cygwin. Followed the instructions at:
http://monoevo.sourceforge.net/mono-windows/mono-beginning-windows/x53.html

and got duplicates definition errors on AM_PATH_XML and AM_PATH_XML2.

Removed the definitions of AC_LOCAL_FLAGS & PKG_CONFIG_PATH (the script
appears to deal with this itself now??)

Now the configure stage completes, but I get a make error:
make  all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/richard/mono'
Making all in mono
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/richard/mono/mono'
Makefile:313: *** missing separator.  Stop.

This is caused by having:
if PLATFORM_WIN32
	arch monograph interpreter jit tests benchmark
else
	arch monograph interpreter jit tests benchmark handles
endif

appear in the makefile in mono/mono - shouldn't this have been evaluated?

Interestingly, if I comment out the #if, etc, I get an error due to LINK not
being defined in the mono/mono/utils makefile - which suggests to me that
the configuration process isn't working right and it's time to ask!

Cheers,
