Re: [Banshee-List] Compiling under windows

["Dustin C. Hatch" <admiralnemo gmail com>]

Matt,

I believe the only bug relating to building Banshee on Windows that
has not been closed with a patch committed is `#639808`_, and it only
applies if you are using MonoDevelop. In Visual Studio 2008, no
changes are necessary in order to get the solution to build and
produce a working application. If you do need to use MonoDevelop, just
download the patch in that bug and apply it with `git am
0001-Remove-all-Package-elements-from-project-references.patch`. Note,
however, that although you should get a full build and a working
client, there are still the issues I mentioned earlier, most notably
the missing icons and UI theme.

I didn't put any keywords or any other uniquely identifying mark on
any of the bugs I filed this weekend; perhaps that's a convention the
developers would like to start.
