From the README.win32 in glib's sources: For more information about the port or GLib, GTk+ and the GIMP to native Windows, and pre-built binary packages, see http://www.iki.fi/tml/gimp/win32/ . "Native" means that we use the Win32 API only, and not any POSIX emulation layer except that provided by the Microsoft runtime C library. Additionally the pthreads emulation library is used. As for now, to build GLib on Win32, you need the Microsoft compiler and tools. Both the compiler from MSVC 5.0 and MSVC 6.0 have been used successfully. = snip snip = You should also be able to compile it in a cygwin environment. lupus -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- lupus@debian.org debian/rules
