Please extract the files from the 4.8.0 tarball and remove the line in rules.make which looks like this: .PHONY: buildid buildbranch (or something similar) Otherwise buildversion.scm will always be recompiled, and requires "chicken.exe", which hasn't been created yet. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
