Compiling 5.5.31 from source using Cygwin

[NOT_FOUND NOT_FOUND]

I have compiled MySQL multiple times with no problem on Windows using CygWin. Now it seems there is a problem. I have tried several different versions of MySQL and they all end at the same place.

When I install CygWin it loads a set of default packages and Then I add the other packages I need to finish compiling MySQL.

I can do a “make mysqlclient” and that completes with no errors.

When I do a “make install” I get this error and the compiling stops.

I went back several version of MySQL and it does the same thing. So I’m assuming there is a problem with one of the packages. I did try using several other mirrors to pull packages, but the same result.
