Hello,

This problem solved. Thank you for the tip.

`V=1 make` gave me the full command line for libtool
libtool --debug -> showed an execution of `sort -ur` right before the error message

A little poking at `sort` showed that my PATH had C:\Windows\System32 before the C:\usr\bin. Therefore, instead of gnu's sort.exe, the windows' sort.exe was used. But windows's sort.exe does not know the -u key.
Once I corrected the PATH - that problem disappeared.

Ok, It's always useful to check that the correct tools are used, and V=1 is a good way to know.

Now I have another mystery.
Make fails with:

make.EXE[2]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/local/bin/glib-genmarshal', needed by 'gda-marshal.c'.  Stop.

The configure script searched for glib-genmarshal and found it, but forget to add an .exe suffix (which is essential on Windows).
Not sure how to fix the problem on a global scale (without modifying the configure script). But manual correction of Makefile did the trick:
GLIB_GENMARSHAL = /usr/local/bin/glib-genmarshal.exe

I did not know about that bug...

And I think that is it.

There are several strange warnings:
libtool: link: warning: `c:/mingw/lib/libintl.la' seems to be moved
But I am not sure they are a problem. The file does really exists.
Do not know why libtool complains.

It seems libtool gets confused at some point and prints those warning which apparently can safely be ignored.

Regards,

Vivien
