Re: makefile.mk is missing with Perl 5.34.0 distro.

Thank you @corion and @rob and all the monks for helping me out with the makefile and patch issue, I have new patch file and seems to work.

In GNUmakefile gmake command seems used whereas I have make.exe in the GNUWindows make directory and that is why it seems failing, would it work if i rename make.exe to gmake.exe.

Thanks again,
Cheers.

... would it work if i rename make.exe to gmake.exe The GNU make utility that I use to build perl on Windows is called "make.exe". It's in my PATH and I always invoke it simply as "make". I've never had any problems with that. That should be fine - unless it's not really GNU make. Cheers, Rob	[reply]

I have renamed "make.exe" to "gmake.exe" and it seems working. This would indicate that there's something (the batch file ?) in your build process that requires your GNU make utility to be called "gmake". However, this is not a general requirement. Anyway, I'm delighted that you've persevered with this and got it working. Cheers, Rob	[reply]
