win32/cygwin swig-perl-lib build not possible

["Ronny T. Lampert" <te...@uni.de>]

Hi,

I just wanted to ask if anybody has managed to build the swig-perl bindings 
for svn under cygwin?
I could not find any useful docs despite heavy searching and fiddling around.

During the normal build, libtool is complaining that it can't link against a 
static lib and bails out with unresolved symbols; it also seems that no 
dynamic libs are built.

The configure-call was simply: ./configure --with-zlib --with-perl
(Adding --enable-shared does not help.)

The "make swig-pl-lib" runs, but doing the perl Makefile.PL in 
subversion/bindings/swig/perl/ fails with:
"Channot chdir to ../../libsvn_client/.libs/: No such file or directory at 
Makefile.PL line 45."


Kinds Regards,
Ronny

I'm working on this, and have actually run a "svk sync" under Cygwin.

However, the difference between kludging a working build on my system and
getting it into a package is non-trivial.

There will be a subversion-perl and svk package for Cygwin. I'm cautious
about about giving a time estimate, but my tentative guess would be about 1
to 2 weeks after 1.1.0.

Max.
