Thanks drawoc! I'm running into some problems that I'm trying to work through but perhaps you or someone else has run into this before and can point me in the right direction (or point out what's wrong with my setup)... Here's the error and afterwards I have listed all the steps I have taken to try to get my environment to be able to run the build script: Jari@Jari-PC /gimp $ build I: unknown keys defined in configuration file: mingw_tool_prefix, mingw_tools, searchprefix, fullpath_tool, flavour_cfla gs, module, tool, flavour_opt, flavour, mingw_tools_args, flavour_ext Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/mingw/msys/1.0/bin/jhbuild", line 31, in <module> jhbuild.main.main(sys.argv[1:]) File "C:/mingw/msys/1.0/jhbuild\jhbuild\main.py", line 130, in main config = jhbuild.config.Config(options.configfile) File "C:/mingw/msys/1.0/jhbuild\jhbuild\config.py", line 205, in __init__ self.setup_env() File "C:/mingw/msys/1.0/jhbuild\jhbuild\config.py", line 429, in setup_env get_stderr = False).strip() File "C:/mingw/msys/1.0/jhbuild\jhbuild\utils\cmds.py", line 63, in get_output **kws) File "C:/mingw/msys/1.0/jhbuild\jhbuild\utils\subprocess_win32.py", line 112, in __init__ elif not command[0].endswith('.exe') or kws['shell']: KeyError: 'shell' 1. Install mingw, choose latest packages, c/c++ compiler, msys and developer kit. 2. Install mingw64 http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/ Choose the latest w32 build e.g. mingw32-w32-bin_i686-mingw_xxxxxxxx.zip http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Wi n32/Automated%20Builds/ Extract it to your machine on top of mingw, e.g. c:\mingw 3. Install Python27 Add python to your path (msys/1.0/etc/profile): export PATH="$PATH:/c/Python27" 4.

Adjust ACLOCAL_FLAGS export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /share/aclocal" 6. Install msysgit to c:\git. When asked, choose the 'Use Git Bash only' option (avoid adding anything to the PATH). In the line ending conversions choice, pick "Checkout as-is, commit Unix-style line endings" Add git/bin to the end of your path (msys/1.0/etc/profile): export PATH="$PATH:/c/git/bin" 7. jhbuild needs to know shell location to be able to run it export SHELL=/bin/sh 8. Install jhbuild http://afuera.me.uk/jhbuild-windows/ git clone git://gitorious.org/jhbuild/jhbuild.git cd jhbuild ./autogen-sh (not sure if this is necessary) make -f Makefile.windows make install # create .jhbuildrc file as described on the jhbuild windows page jhbuild sanitycheck (mine is still complaining about gettext and xml catalog) jhbuild bootstrap jhbuild build (some failures here still with libxml2) 11. Get the gimp windows jhbuild https://github.com/drawoc/windows-gimp-jhbuild.
