Cygwin's libtool, which is almost unchanged from the official 1.5.10 -- does not support pathnames with spaces in them. I would ask for patches, but things seem to be gearing up for the long-heralded libtool-2.0 release and it may (or may not?) have fixed problems of this sort. Unfortunately, all I can recommend at this time is "don't do that." Maybe unpack and build in /tmp/curlpp instead of in your $HOME. -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
