Re: Build problems on Win32

[Ken Anderson <kanderson@xxxxxxx>]

I can't even get the simple-install to work.
goo-0_131-win32-dev 2> make simple-install
cd c; make
The system cannot find the path specified.

make: *** [simple-install] Error 1
goo-0_131-win32-dev 3>

I think the problem is that make is using the cmd shell rather than bash.
Any idea how to fix that?
