Re: Fwd: Missing utf8.h


Thank you Ken and Marco.  My mistake was in thinking utf8.h was a
system include file that I had not yet installed.  It was actually
part of the third party package.  My bad.  Your advice did lead me to
the problem.

More than you want to know but the reason why the include file was not
being found was because the package Makefile uses uname command output
to set -I paths.  The uname output was checked for the strings Linux
and Darwin but there was no check for CYGWIN_NT-6.1 nor an error if
the two expected values were not found.  Poor Makefile scripting.
