[R] How to build the RMySQL package on Windows?

[Witold Eryk Wolski]

Hello!

I tried to build the RMySQL package by myself on an NT machine. I have a
NT machine with cygwin compiler and activestate Perl installed on it.

Perl details:
D:\prog\rw1011\src\gnuwin32>perl -v
This is perl, version 5.005_03 built for MSWin32-x86-object
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)
Copyright 1987-1999, Larry Wall
Binary build 522 provided by ActiveState Tool Corp.
http://www.ActiveState.com
Built 09:52:28 Nov  2 1999

I followod the steps described in RHOME/readme.packages. and perished
at.

D:\prog\rw1011\src\gnuwin32>make pkg-RMySQL
make DLLNM=  EXTRADOCS= \
          -C D:/prog/rw1011/src/library/RMySQL PKG=RMySQL
RHOME=D:/prog/rw1011 RLIB=D:/prog/rw1011/library \
          -f D:/prog/rw1011/src/gnuwin32/MakePkg
""---------- Making package RMySQL ------------""
mkdir -p D:/prog/rw1011/library/RMySQL
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
make[1]: *** [D:/prog/rw1011/library/RMySQL/zzzz] Error 1
make: *** [pkg-RMySQL] Error 2

Some hints? Some tips? A precompiled package?
