Aha, many thanks!
Running that on my last working copy (25.0.50.1) gives:
"--prefix=/z/emacs --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --target=x86_64-w64-mingw32
--build=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --with-wide-int --with-jpeg --with-xpm
--with-png --with-tiff --with-rsvg --with-xml2 --with-gnutls
--with-sound=yes --with-file-notification=yes --without-dbus
--without-imagemagick 'CFLAGS=-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -g0 -pipe'
'LDFLAGS=-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -static -s -Wl,-s'"
Which as you see, contains "--without-dbus".
The latest one I've downloaded is much simpler:
"--prefix=/tmp/emacs --without-imagemagick 'CFLAGS=-O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -g0'"
So that will be the problem. Many thanks for your help, I'll try and get
a version with the correct settings.
Cheers
Dave
