In compiling Inkscape for Windows vista Home SP2, in response to the 'btool' command, I received this error message:
make error line 0 : cannot open the file 'C:\devlibs\lib\pkgconfig\gtkmm-2.4.pc'
Adding the DEVLIBS_PATH fixed this problem, ran btool again, but received similar message for mingw, adding the MINGW_PATH environment variable fixed this problem as well.
How to: In Control Panel/System/Advanced System Settings/Advanced Tab/Environment Variables: 1. click New, type DEVLIBS_PATH in Variable Name, C:<path>\devlibs in Variable Value, click OK ...(individual paths may vary) 2. click New, type MINGW_PATH in Variable Name, C:\mingw32 in Variable Value, click OK 3. click OK, close control panel, etc. 4. run btool again 5. play skyrim while it grinds

Did you run mingwenv before trying to run btool?

Yes we ran mingwenv and saw that it set the path variables. It's possible that we closed the command window after mingwenv/before btool as we had issues with bzr. This would explain it. Thanks Josh. - susan

mingwenv must be run every time a console/command prompt is opened to compile inkscape. Basically it sets the path temporarily until that window it's closed.
Thanks Josh.
You're welcome... and skyrim is a good way to pass the time. ;)
Cheers, Josh
