Thanks for the fast reply. But your conclusion may be made too fast ...<br><br>I had a previous installation of MinGW on my system, and then I used the KDE installer to re-install it ... probably not a good idea. So it's not a good idea to conclude from my experience that the installer is at fault.<br>
(But it might be.)<br><br>I will uninstall MinGW, and then reinstall it using the MinGW installer, from the MinGW web site. I'll let you know what happens.<br><font color="#888888"><br>-gary</font></blockquote></div>

<br>I removed MSYS and MinGW, and then reinstalled MinGW (but not MSYS) including MinGW make from the latest installer from the MinGW website.<br><br>Same error. This is MinGW 3.4.5<br><br></div></div></div></blockquote>

<br>For libkdcraw/libkexiv2/likipi, you extract kdegraphics repository and you run script in kdegraphics dir, not libs, not libkdcraw, etc... Why ? because there are some important directive for cmake included on file CMakeLists.txt <br>
<br>For digiKam and kipi-plugins, it's the same. You extract extragear/graphics and you run bootstrap script in graphics dir...<br><font color="#888888"><br><br>Gilles Caulier<br> </font></div></div></blockquote></div>
<br>Thanks yet again for your help, patience, and software.<br><br>I now have a working digiKam 0.10.0-beta6 on WinXP !<br><br>There were a few more glitches along the way: make couldn't find my perl. I don't remember if the KDE installer installs perl. If so, it might have not played nice with my existing perl. Or perhaps my existing perl was just too old. In any even, I uninstalled/reinstalled perl, and the problem went away.<br>
<br>Then part way through the compile, Windows went batty. Lots of system errors and compiler errors. Memory leak? Reboot, continue. No further problems.<br><br>digikam seems to be working fine, although it is a bit sluggish. I have to wait a couple of seconds after clicking anything. <br>
<br>Regards and thanks again,<br>gary<br><br><br>
