I need the error report if you want me too look at it (same for
the luatex stack dumping)
Hello Taco,
Please find attached the output of the build-script.
Something is broken in the build script, probably because of a
'make mpost' vs. 'make mpost.exe' issue. This bit:
gcc -g -O2 mpost.c -o mpost
is the best hint at what is wrong: make is not using any of the
dependencies for mpost.c, which typically happens when you feed
make the wrong target.
Now I have the 'interesting' problem that I know what is wrong,
but not exactly how to fix it. From LuaTeX's build.sh comes the
following:
case `uname` in
MINGW32* ) LUATEXEXE=luatex.exe ;;
esac
clearly mpost's build.sh needs something similar, but I don't know
for sure what 'uname' returns under cygwin. I've attached a version
of metapost build.sh that has my best guess.
Can you see whether it works?
Best wishes,
Taco
