ReactOS build problems...

[Neal Gompa]

I downloaded the latest ReactOS SVN today, and I attempted to compile it
with the RosBE. What happened was that the mingw32-make program shows this
message: "makefile.auto:47549: *** missing separator.  Stop."... Well, I
figured that I got an incomplete build, so I reran TortoiseSVN and it said
that I had the complete distribution... This should be fixed so that ReactOS
will build, and if anyone is thinking... It occurs in all different building
syntax... all, livecd, bootcd, install, depends, etc. fail with the same
message...

I just checked, and the most recent revision of ReactOS builds fine  
to me.

You should fix your build environment, perhaps it's picking wrong  
make.exe, or something like this. Check that you don't have MSYS  
installed, and no other make.exe is in your path.

WBR,

I think it is the makefiles... Perhaps you could mark it changed so that SVN
would fix it...

Trust us, our build system is fine, it's your build environment which is 
the problem.
The makefile is auto-generated. If you ever have any problems with it, 
just delete it and rbuild will regenerate it.

Thanks, it worked!
