Why should this not work? The diffutils package I mentioned is from MinGW. Anyway, I think we should not link against libiconv*.dll at all because it slows down the startup too much. > The path to Git should also have been set automatically. I will look into > this. Well, I did not reboot, or log out and in again. I just opened a CMD after the installation was complete. Usually, CMD picks up new PATHs if they have been modified via the Settings->System->Advanced (or whatsitcalled) tool. So, I thought it would be the same with installations. -- Hannes
