Bug #9339: Can't Compile Ruby 2.1 without baseruby (Win7, MSYS/MinGW)
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9339

Author: ntor (Peter Wildemann)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: cruby-windows
Category: build
Target version: 
ruby -v: 2.1
Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN


On my Win7 System in an MSYS/MinGW-environment (more precisely the 'mingw-builds' version) I have been trying to compile Ruby 2.1 from source.
I unpacked and entered:

    configure --prefix=/c/path/to/my/ruby/install
    make
The first ran well, the second aborted with the error message:

    generating miniprelude.c
    executable host ruby is required. use --with-baseruby option.
    uncommon.mk:929: recipe for target `miniprelude.c' failed
    make: *** [miniprelude.c] Error 1"

I tried the same for Ruby 2.0. Here the same proedure runs fine.
