Description hydra 2002-03-06 12:37:30 UTC
Win32 project files don't like paths with spaces in them, e.g. When 
building
a project from a path like: "c:\documents and settings\me\source\my
project\" errors are generated.

To fix this, apply the following diff, and change other project files which
might also have this problem.

The file, libxml2\win32\dsp\libxml2.dsp needs to be updated like this:

+++ libxml2.dsp Tue Mar  5 23:42:31 2002

Seems Igor the maintainer of the Windows port objects modifying
those files which are generated by Visual Studio. I can't help
on this bug which is not GNOME related. You should subscribe to
the mailing list and discuss with Igor about this.
