Hi, I can confirm the issue you describe, and further can even add that it also doesnt work on Linux; though changing the Makefile.[am|in] is the wrong approach since it doesnt survive the next configure run; instead the issues are in configure[.in] itself: there we have a section which rewrites the Makefile.in in those dirs (where the ./scripts dir is missing at all). So the right fix IMO is to change configure[.in]: 1) add missing scripts/Makefile.in to list of files to be processed + add a case for it 2) fix the sed match rules since they dont match properly I'm currently working on this prob, and can hopefully soon come up (as my time permits) with a patch that works properly on both Linux and Cygwin; this also requires changes to the ./netware/BUILD/compile-linux-tools. BTW. the MySQL cross-compile support is crappy at all, and with 5.1.x it becomes even more worse, and there is stuff added to configure which breaks every cross-compilation now. Since this issue is true for 5.1.x and later versions too please change relevant version and add 5.1.x and 5.5.x!

I don't see Netware in the list of supported plaforms. There are some 5.0.x builds available in the archive, but not 5.1, 5.5, 5.6 or 5.7. And this looks like a pre cmake bug... This bug should be changed to 'Not supported' status. The only weird thing is that Netware is not listed on the eol-notice page.. https://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html https://www.mysql.com/support/eol-notice.html

It was only noted in the change history of 5.5.6 : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/5.5/en/news-5-5-6.html "Code was removed for the following no-longer-supported platforms: NetWare, MS-DOS, VMS, QNX, and 32-bit SPARC."
