[gdal-dev] 1.7.0 MSYS build broken in GPX

[Ari Jolma]

Roger,

I have no problems with building the GPX driver.

However, I've got several problems with the basic build process with 
MSYS. I seem to need to run libtoolize, aclocal, and autoconf (is the 
libtool in repo old?). Then I need to fix the cpl_config.h with MSYS 
related defines (something broken in the MSYS autotools I have?).

With those fixes there are no problems in the actual make.

This was just tried with svn update. My MSYS and MinGW should be very up 
to date.
