X2Go Client 4.0.2.0 HEAD failed to build from source.

I am using the standard setup which has worked for 4.0.1.3:
mingw32 4.4
QT 4.8.5
X2Go-WinBuilder VM (WIn7 64-bit SP1)

See attached logs. They are what happens when I run the last 2
commands mentioned in this list:
$ cd x2goclient
$ PATH=%PATH%;D:\MinGW\libexec\gcc\mingw32\4.4.0\
$ config_win.bat
$ mingw32-make
From this page:
http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:build-howto-mswin:x2goclient

Note that there are errors in both config_win.bat's output, and in
mingw32-make's output. And they seem to be related to resources.rcc
not finding files.

The reason for the FTBFS is a series of commits from Alex adding some methods for retrieving more detailled information on the current X2Go Client build during runtime. Basically, that is a nice-to-have feature esp. during development cycles.

The not so good aspect is, that currently all automatic (and the win32) builds fail (for Linux builds see http://jenkins.x2go.org).

@Alex:

The problem is the git executable. Basically, we have to assume that (a) the .git folder is not present (e.g. in the tarball releases) and (b) the git command is not available in the build environment.

So my suggestion would be:

  o create the txt/git script before the build (I can add that to
    our buildscripts on code.x2go.org)
  o copy the changelog file via debian/rules (for the .deb package)
    and via x2goclient.spec (for the .rpm packages)
  o only make the --git cmdline switch available if ./txt/git exists
  o (and maybe rather rename --git to --git-info)
  o only make the --changelog cmdline switch available if
    ./txt/changelog exists

So basically, please split the work up into

  X2Go Client code: (todo Alex)

    o offer --git(-info) and/or --changelog if the corresponding
      ./txt/* files exists during runtime

  debian/rules | x2goclient.spec (todo Mike#1):

    o create ./txt/changelog

  x2go-build-deb-package | x2go-build-rpm-package (todo Mike#1):

    o create the git information in ./txt/git-info

  winbuider.bat (todo Mike#2)

    o create the git information in ./txt/git-info

Package maintainers of distros should (be able to) omit the creation of ./txt/changelog | ./txt/git-info. The upstream version and the package release should bear all info that is needed.

Thanks+Greets,
Mike
