2rklipp: Now wrc.exe from Open Watcom is used for resources, instead of rc.exe from Toolkit. So, you need to install the gcc-wrc package for that.

[rklipp]

Got gcc-wrc installed but get same error in different place, Am I still missing something?

did you install gcc-wrc with rpm? Did you reboot afterwards? As it writes some settings to config.sys

[rklipp]

Yes rebooting changed things, now this:

Please make sure you have only have one copy of libxc0.dll around (especially in memory). This error is an indicator that there are several versions and one is trying to screw the other one. It was fixed in current releases but if you have some old or test build along the path it will break.

[rklipp]

There is no libxc0.dll anywhere on this machine. Are you speaking of the same libxc0 used with Octopus?

[diver]

of course this should have been libcx0.dll.

I really hope you use a rpm only build env. As somehow you are the only one having issues to build.
If you send me your e-mail address, I will invite you to our team at slack. It's way easier to discuss build issues over there as in tickets.

my mail is: info (at) bitwiseworks (dot) com

[rklipp]

This problem was resolved by re-downloading the source code and re-compiling. Consider it fixed and there was no problem with the source code other than an apparent bad download.

[dmik]

Yes I meant 'libcx0.dll` of course, that was a typo. Anyway, closing this. As for instant chat with the developers, there is now an instruction on how to join it that doesn't require invitations: http://trac.netlabs.org/vbox/wiki/WikiStart#IRCchatfordevelopers.
