So, for us to figure out what's going on, we need the date and size from each EXE image you are talking about. The 2.03 update provides a bash 2.04 while the cvs/2.04 provides a bash 2.05. There have been several releases of bash with the same numbers, so it's once again important to know the date and size. > In making a couple applications, I noticed that the "rice binaries" version > of bash and sh 'could not find gcc.exe' when executing a configure script > ("GCC unable to create executables" CONFIGURE error, also the MAKE error > that it couldn't find GCC.EXE) > What is more interesting is this: It is OK if the 'rice bash' is in my > %DJGPP%\bin; the problems occur when it is in my D:\bin (needed to run > configure scripts). > So the version kept in '\bin' is the Delorie dist. copy. Then configure > scripts run with that version without problems. > Has anyone else noticed this??? I haven't noticed this doing builds on Windows 2000 (I don't even have a \bin directory). But my distribution isn't exactly clean either.
