Here are some instructions to build the full version on windows, for the non-gui version you would need to change the configure command I think: --------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Install MSYS2: Go to https://www.msys2.org/ and download and install the latest version of MSYS2, e.g. msys2-x86_64-20210725.exe. 2. Start a MSYS2 terminal with mingw 32-bit (not 64bit!) and type the commands below that are marked with a $: 3.Update the core packages: $ pacman -Syu If anything is installed, close the terminal and redo this step until everything is up to date (might be 3 or 4 times). 4.Get the build chain tools: $ pacman -S automake autoconf libtool pkg-config flex bison make cvs 5.Check out the latest code: $ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[email protected]:/sources/gnubg co gnubg 6.Get the required packages: $ pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain mingw-w64-i686-gtk2 mingw-w64-i686-gtkglext I installed all of them. (Maybe this can be automated using makepkg or similar?) 7.Configure the make files: $ cd gnubg $ ./autogen.sh $ sh non-src/cglm.shar $ ./configure $ notepad config.h Add this line to the end of the "config.h" file #define USABLE_UNDER_MSYS 1 8. Build gnubg $ make $ make install 9. Run gnubg $ gnubg -------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon On Fri, 24 Sept 2021 at 19:54, Dariusz Stachowski <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > I am curious how I may compile GnuBG for Windows 7.
