[Chicken-users] Building on MSYS2

2015-12-11 Thread dan
I'm attempting to install Chicken 4.10.1 using MINGW64 via MSYS2; and I 
have managed to have a nearly faultless experience. The final install 
step fails with:


/usr/local/bin/chicken-install -update-db

Error: (directory) cannot open directory - No such file or directory: 
"/usr/local/lib/chicken/8"

rules.make:357: recipe for target 'install-bin' failed
make: [install-bin] Error 1 (ignored)


However, /usr/local/lib/chicken/8 does exist. My supposition is that 
Chicken is unaware of MSYS' manipulation of the directory structure.


The build step was:

make PLATFORM=mingw-msys install

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
-Dan

Did you follow the README's notes?

- When installing under the mingw-msys platform, PREFIX must be an
absolute path name (i.e. it must include the drive letter) and
must use forward slashes (no backward slashes).
