Title:	mingw build from chocolatey or git-bash+make+mingw is broken
Type:	Bug	Created on:	2019-08-19 18:15:10
Submitter:	sebres	Assigned to:	sebres
Subsystem:	53. Configuration and Build Tools	Severity:	Minor
Priority:	5 Medium	Last modified:	2019-08-20 07:21:31

Version:	>= 8.5

Description:
(GNU)make using mingw without msys toolchain (with cygpath?), e. g. build from chocolatey or from git-bash + make + mingw fails with: `mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target 'tclStubLib.c', needed by 'tclStubLib.o'. Stop. child process exited abnormally No rule to make target 'tclStubLib.c', needed by 'tclStubLib.o'` Make from mingw+msys works fine (so default toolchain seems to be not affected). It looks like VPATH seems to be broken in this case. Fixing (WiP).
User Comments:
sebres added on 2019-08-19 19:22:00: Fixed in all major branches (starting with [09dae07f92] for 8.5 and [f2dee93aa1] 8.6), thus close. I have partially cherry-picked it from my github-branches (travis repairing attempts directly from github)... and I'll continue with mingw builds here (and tests) later, once my other fixes get ready for 8.5/8.6 branches. jan.nijtmans added on 2019-08-20 07:21:31: Thanks for this. Good work! Just one remark: See [01e90e520f786319] (already fixed in all branches) 👍
