After helping Michael Parsons he had a few comments about what he had to do
to get everything linked properly. Below are his comments that may be of use
to others.
----
For future reference, your instructions as to what to do after installing
python25 were not quite right, but I was able to improvise. It is not the
dll that the make is looking for, but libpython25.a, which is in the
/python25/libs directory. Then, in addition, it wants libsqlite3.a. Both
of these archives need to be placed in /gnu/mingw/lib. Now, libsqlite3.a is
NOT in /python25/libs, but _sqlite3.lib is. So, I executed the following
command:
cp -m /python25/libs/_sqlite3.lib /gnu/mingw/lib/libsqlite3.a
and after that, the linker was happy. Would have never gotten here without
your help.
Thanks a bunch, and now I have to familiarize myself with what gnubg can do.
Mike

Never is - welcome to open source :). As for python I recommend downloading
python252 from the python site (in particular:
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.2/python-2.5.2.msi )
Once you install that look through your system (search) for python25.dll .
Liekly it will be in your windows\system32 directory. Copy th dll into the
directory where you build GnuBG from, recompile and see what happens.
