[PyKDE] PyQt Windows Build

[Remy Anthoine]

Thanks. Cygwin is probably messing up indeed so I tried to launch make
by specifying the full path of make.

Here is the output of configure.py :

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\sip-4.5.2>c:\python25\python con
figure.py -p win32-g++
This is SIP 4.5.2 for Python 2.5 on win32.
The SIP code generator will be installed in c:\python25.
The SIP module will be installed in c:\python25\Lib\site-packages.
The SIP header file will be installed in c:\python25\include.
The default directory to install .sip files in is c:\python25\sip.
The platform/compiler configuration is win32-g++.
Creating sipconfig.py...
Creating top level Makefile...
Creating sip code generator Makefile...
Creating sip module Makefile...

Then the make install:

C:\MinGW\bin\mingw32-make.exe install

Output:
( ... )
Must remake target `install'.
CreateProcess(c:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe,c:/cygwin/bin/sh.exe -c "if not exist c:\pyth
on25 mkdir c:\python25",...)
