Hi John, I tested the pspp-64bit-install.exe installer from here
https://caeis.etech.fh-augsburg.de/downloads/windows/pspp-win-daily/1.5.3-g8d023f/ <https://caeis.etech.fh-augsburg.de/downloads/windows/pspp-win-daily/1.5.3-g8d023f/> on Windows 11 and it did not crash. The examples and the html help are working. As you already guessed the problem was the mingw64-configure/make which does not work as expected. I now build also the dependencies with your script on debian bullseye. How did you survive to even jump into the nsis windoze installer stuff?...
