Hallo Christoph,

Did you use the --distfiles option to specify the location of the image library (libXpm.dll) with configure.bat?

For example, like this

configure.bat --distfiles C:\DistFileDir

This will set the DIST_FILES variable in the makefile and is necessary in order to use `make dist'.

No I did not because I had not noticed it. This explains the issues I had.

Also note, that this is not supposed to do what `make install' does. It is supposed to conveniently build and package a Windows distribution in a .zip file, which then has to be unzipped to the installation location.
This was exactly why I wanted to try it: i want to install the compiled version on a Win7 x64 machine. I couldn't find a mingw version for it.

Thanks for the explanation!

Martin
