Thanks John, this helped.

Not sure why the GUILE_LOAD_PATH and GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH is not set from ‘jhbuild shell’ but is for ‘jhbuild build/buildone’ but I can workaround that.

 

They’re inserted into ninja.build and the test commands by CMakeLists.txt, not by anything to do with jhbuild.

[Russ Gorby] huh, OK, let me try to digest that. Thanks.





 

The bigger problem now is that on 3/30/2025 mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-cmake upgraded to cmake v4.0.0 which apparently chokes on 

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION X.Y) if X.Y < 3.5

 

So? We require 3.14. 3.5 is ancient.

[Russ Gorby] I saw this in the googletest module which has min version set to 2.6. Seems like this will be an issue anywhere with cmake4.0.0

 

Regards,

John Ralls
