Dear all:

I build vlc-0.8.5 on Windows XP under Cygwin.
Everything works fine except that error occurs when I make package-win32 as following:

Code: Select all

Section: "Mozilla plugin" ->(SEC03)
SectionIn: [1] [2]
!insertmacro: OpenUninstallLog
FileOpen: $INSTDIR\uninstall.log as w -> $UninstallLog
FileSeek: fp=$UninstallLog, ofs=0, mode=END, output=
!insertmacro: end of OpenUninstallLog
!insertmacro: InstallFolder
File: Returning to: "."
File: "mozilla" -> no files found.
Usage: File [/nonfatal] [/a] ([/r] [/x filespec [...]] filespec [...] |
   /oname=outfile one_file_only)
Error in macro InstallFolder on macroline 1
Error in script "./vlc-0.8.5/vlc.win32.nsi" on line 420 -- aborting creation process
make: *** [package-win32-base-exe] Error 1

I have firefox on my system. Should I install mozilla, too? Or it is an abnormal condition?

BTW, make package-win32-base is OK.

Can you paste here your ./configure line ?

Dear Sir:

Here is my configure line:

After several tials, I found it is due to the configure options --enable-mozilla --with-mozilla-sdk-path=/usr/win32/gecko-sdk not enabled in my configure line which is the default!

The annoying problem disappears after the options are added. This may not the truely cause if someone succeed to make package-win32 without these options enabled. If yes, it seems that the documents are not up to update for a long while.
