CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:124 (msgfmt_target):
  Unknown CMake command "msgfmt_target".

Just wondering if this is fixable on my end? I'm new to c/c++ compilers, but i've managed to get one setup (helloworld compiles). Your source code almost compiles, but there's an error i was unable to figure out.

All the packages are found during the compile process it seems.

Here's the log:
CMakeOutput.log

I've tried to download all available options for cmake, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. I've tried to compile in msys and in CMD ... exact same result both times.

I think this might be a python distribution issue. What specific python distro name/version did you use to compile this?

I had the wrong libs in cygwin. Bit of a noob mistake.

Now i'm on to using make and it gets pretty far, but stops here:

gpick-master/source/Paths.cpp:37:17: error: '::readlink' has not been declared

I think this might be a c / c++ library issue. Though again might boil down to the wrong package on cygwin. Any ideas? I'm not trying to cross compile, just trying to compile with cygwin dependencies.

Did this ever get fixed? I got this same problem. Ran just a basic, clean install of the deps. No clue how to carry on from here.
