Hello, I tried to use 1.69. But it happens 1.68 has the same error (wrong definition) in allheaders.h. Never mentioned leptprotos.h.
As I said - I rarely used C/C++ (last thing I made in C was some indexing function for Clipper; I am mostly Delphi programmer) so that error looked like a showstopper for me. Documentation is a bit confusing - you find many examples about what to download and where to extract, but not folders not contents are named as stated in documentation. So a "builder" must guess and download additional packages and set up many things by himself. Also, forcing directory structure to reflect some artist's imagination is ridiculous. Ever since "relative" paths were invented. I would recommend fixing allheaders.h and pushing "build copy" in SVN to the phase where it would not depend on directory structure or God's will to compile. Otherwise all of that is incredibly cool and usable stuff. Let The World have benefits from it.
