RE: Building Pinentry for Windows
Hello, Thanks for reply. I have did all that you wrote in the previous mail. I have dropped the pinentry.mk that you attached in the email to the mxe/src folder, but it won't work. But, just some moments ago i have successfully built the whole Gpg4Win :), by following the instructions from the README file from the source code. I figured out that the package name for installer is nsis, and not makensis, it is also mentioned in the Basic requirements section of the README file. Right now, by building the whole gpg4win i have succeeded in what i wanted, but i will certainly try again with MXE to see what is the problem there. Thanks for your kind responses. Best regards and cheers to all. Nikola.

I have written a .mk file for it and attached it In my Mail from Wednesday. You should have dropped that pinentry.mk file into the src directory of mxe.

I am glad to hear that. I will add some more tests to the installer. Just for the records: It is strongly suggested to use the gpg4win installer framework or (if necessary) the related "./autogen.sh --build-32" method for building GnuPG and related stuff for Windows. The reasons for this this suggestion is that we can't maintain the set of required options and dependencies in all kind of frameworks. I also don't want to follow up on bugs due to the use of other build systems. The reported problems with the OSX Homebrew build systems are an example of such events.
