As promised, I  enclose below very detailed instructions on how to 
compile Boxi from source. A binary for R645 compiled in this fashio is 
available from one of our project websites [1].

Compiling current trunk fails because current trunk of Box Backup fails 
(see details below).

It would be great if we could give Boxi a big push this summer!

* * * Boxi & Box Backup * * *

svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/boxi/trunk/boxi boxi.648

Checked out external at revision 2547.

Checked out revision 648.

cd boxi
./configure-mingw.sh
./make-image-headers.pl
make

Fails on R648 because automake/autoconf does not generate Makefile.in

R645 does work and creates Makefile.in

svn co -r 645 https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/boxi/trunk/boxi  boxi.645


The only difference in the two files:

$ diff Makefile.am ../boxi.645/Makefile.am
6c6
< SUBDIRS = boxbackup wxchart include src  wxchart
---
 > SUBDIRS = boxbackup include src

Removing the last "wxchart" makes no difference, removing both results 
in a working


Apart from that, even R645 fails due to a problem in Box Backup R2547:

When using the Cygwin CPPUnit (which we should not!)
need to link ln -s /usr/include/cppunit/ /usr/include/mingw/cppunit
otherwise cppunit from cygwin is not found
alternative: add /usr/include to the default includes (see one of Chris' 
postings)!

what about static building to avoid dependencies on:
cygcppunit-1-12-0.dll (even when compiled with /usr/local cppunit!)
