Ok. It appears that recent versions of the mingw32 debian package do not
append '.exe' to the name of created exectuable.
This is valid, but means that software like enigma have to check for and
manually rename the executable's as needed.
So to fix this, mingw32-dist.sh should check whether 'enigma.exe'
exists, if it does not but 'enigma' does exist, it should do "cp enigma
enigma.exe".
Sigh. what was the MingW people thinking?
Just another MingW lesson.
I learned *NEVER* to upgrade to a candidate or a recent released MingW
version - all MingW versions released within the last year have been
withdrawn within a few weeks due to serious trouble they caused. May be
Debian uses such a meanwhile withdrawn version.
Thus I stick to the MingW gcc 3.4.2-20040916 version, which is meanwhile
again the official "current" MingW version. Some time ago I added in the
repository "etc/build-cross.sh" to setup a stable cross compilation
environment.
As far as I remember Daniel once suggested that we should put a
compatible set of the Enigma required *.dll on a download server.
Perhaps we should put them together with the above mentioned MingW
version on the Berlios developer ftp-server.
