Problems with installing 'aspell'
I am new to this community so I hope this is the right place to ask this question. I am trying to install aspell stable version, a spell checker software which I intend to use for my latex documents, on Windows 7 using gcc compiler. In aspell directory, I typed ./configure
. Here's the result:

We have no way of telling, because the error message you've included is just a summary that says that something went wrong. You'll need to include more context.

I added more error message after typing 'make'. If that is not sufficient, please let me know what other information is needed. I am new to this. Thanks

@Rob Would you be able to post the contents of theMakefile
created in the directory that you are trying to invokemake
, please?
– Viktor Nonov
Feb 18 at 1:08
@ViktorNonovMakefile
contains 2136 lines. I've added a link to the source of this software in my question.

@Rob I see, one more clarifying question: Where do you run./configure
andmake
? In theGit Bash
or you start something different?

We have no way of telling, because the error message you've included is just a summary that says that something went wrong. You'll need to include more context.

I added more error message after typing 'make'. If that is not sufficient, please let me know what other information is needed. I am new to this. Thanks

@Rob Would you be able to post the contents of theMakefile
created in the directory that you are trying to invokemake

@Rob I see, one more clarifying question: Where do you run./configure
andmake
? In theGit Bash
or you start something different?
