Hi

I found guide http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/compiling_on_windows which I
tells me how to
*Build the 32-bit version using Microsoft Visual Studio Express*

So I again set my laptop back to factory settings + Windows 7 upgrade to
make sure everything is clean

I followed the guide , OK untill step 4

Get our pre-compiled dependencies "Checkout the dependencies repository
(and have it placed beside your “mixxx” directory) from the
winlib-msvc10-x86-static
branch.

I couldn't see how to do this with GIT, so after much hunting around, used
Bazaar.

But when I trisd to run step 5c, Scons terminated with errors
scons: Building targets ...
protoc -Isrc --cpp_out=win32_build src\proto\skin.proto
'protoc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
scons: *** [win32_build\proto\skin.pb.cc] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

I have included the whole scons process in the attached file

Hope someone can help

Bryan
