[flext] Problem with build of flext libraries !? Please help

Thu Oct 28 12:32:29 CEST 2010

Hi Lou,
the error does not refer to a problem with spaces in a path, but with a strange clash with the definition of make targets.
At the moment i can't see why your situation is special, i can only guess that targets that are normally distinct are the same in your case.
I would suggest that e.g. you try to set FLEXTINC and FLEXTLIB to different paths, and if other paths are similar, to try to disambiguate them.
gr~~~
