Re: rdesktop build on cygwin gone wrong

Ok, so I downloaded rdesktop 1.4.1 to build it with cygwin on a WinXP
Pro machine. And on the "make install", I am getting this error:
jic 16:32:18-> make install
mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
/usr/bin/install -c rdesktop /usr/local/bin
strip /usr/local/bin/rdesktop
strip: /usr/local/bin/rdesktop: No such file or directory
make: *** [installbin] Error 1
I've tried it a few times and I still get the the same problem. Here is
the interesting part: rdesktop works and the man page also. Huh!
Any ideas?
It's because the makefile really needs to invoke "strip
/usr/local/bin/rdesktop.exe" Strip just removes any debugging symbols,
so the executable without the strip will work fine, it just might be
larger than you need.
To fix the problem, you can apply the supplied patch, or just run "strip
/usr/local/bin/rdesktop.exe".

I don't think it's worth washing hogs over.
