<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>To clarify - After searching for a way to build KMM on Windows, I ended up with "emerge". It will (with quite a few fixes since it is a bit out of date) download and build everything needed to build KMM on a pure Windows system, e.g. mingw, gcc, msys, QT, KDE, libraries, and KMM. The emerge scripts create build folders based upon the names of the script files. It looks like the script file names are not always maintained and many script file names have versions and dates that are different from what they actually download and build. The script in emerge for KMM built version 4.6.4 but was still named "kmymoney-4.6.1-20110918.py". I modified the script to pull the master branch from git (that option was in the original script but was not used) but I didn't change the script file name (a new script name would disconnect it from the emerge git repository). So the git master branch is getting built in the folder tree containing the name "kmymoney-4.6.1-20110918". I am not mixing versions. Sorry for the confusion.<BR> <BR>Yes, the "emerge --cleanbuild" removed the entire KMM build folder tree.<BR> <BR>Next time I do a build I will capture the actual error messages and file a bug report.<BR> <BR>Thanks.<BR> Jeff.<BR> <BR><div>> Subject: Re: Can't build gitHEAD version on windows<br>> To: kmymoney-devel@kde.org<br>> From: agander93@gmail.com<br>> Date: Sun, 15 May 2016 11:28:33 +0100<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> Hi Jeff<br>> <br>> See below.<br>> <br>> On 15/05/16 10:02, Christian Dávid wrote:<br>> > Hi Jeff,<br>> ><br>> > I do not know what "emerge --cleanbuild" does.

It just did a git today from the master branch. In fact, I've been trying this (new git) every month or so since about August 2015. As I recall, it has always had this linking problem.
