It is also possible that  nmake cannot find tethereal.exe, perl or the perl script? I am just  guessing.  Are you using cygwin's perl or ActiveState's perl Windows port? It may  help to change the PERL variable in config.nmake using the absolute path  to perl.    </pre>   <blockquote type="cite">     <pre wrap="">     </pre>     <blockquote type="cite">       <pre wrap="">Note for Glib and GTK+: extract the binary packages and the development packages into the same directories (one directory for Glib and another one for GTK).       </pre>     </blockquote>     <pre wrap=""> I did that (it's "C:\ethereal-win32-libs", with GLib extracted into "C:\ethereal-win32-libs\glib" and GTK+ extracted into "C:\ethereal-win32-libs\gtk+") - but that directory is *NOT* in my path setting.

One pro for a COMMON_FILES_GNU directory is the small and clean "PATH"  setting. At the moment we have lots of directories in the PATH variable.  This increases the chances that the wrong files are included or used  during the build process.  I would copy all necessary dlls into a "COMMON_FILE_GNU" directory and  add only this to PATH. We can do this as a part of the build process. It  would work in the same way as the creation "gtk2.tmp".  I haven't tested the recent changes of Ulf Lamping yet. However, I know that the NSIS makefile is not working currently. Ulf, can you take a look at it? I won't have the time to work on it in  this week.  Suggestion for an Install target on Win32: Invoke the makefile in the  nsis directory and call the installer. There might be a "silent" option  in nsis available to do the installation automatically.

COULD YOU PLEASE SEND YOUR EMAILS NOT IN AN HTML FORMAT!!!!

Sorry, but I got lot's of this E-Mails the last week, and really get 
tired of this...

Although I'm using outlook and using win32 and ... I tend to use simple 
ascii text as default for this reasons.

Just use plain old text format, and noone get's upset...
