Re: [Help-gsl] Building gsl-1.15 under MinGW

[Francesco Abbate]

Hi,

I've experienced similar problem in past and the solution was to put
the MinGW directory in the path *before* the standard Windows
directories. The reason was that one command already exists in the
Windows path but it was not the good one, but I don't remember which
one it was.

I recommend to always put mingw directories in the path before
window's directory because it is better to let the shell find first
the unix-like mingw commands instead of the windows' native one.

I hope that helps.

Francesco
