I followed Paq8px building instructions to build a quick (_0_quick_build) and a profiled (_1_build_gen_profile + _2_run_paq + _3_build_use_profile) versions with g++ (x86_64-win32-sjlj-rev1, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 7.1.0.
2 Maximum Compression files has different compressed size:
Code:
Quick build:
857.915 AcroRd32.exe.paq8px141
1.214.818 MSO97.DLL.paq8px141
Profiled build:
857.948 AcroRd32.exe.paq8px141
1.214.793 MSO97.DLL.paq8px141
"Building paq8px from source": in paq8px\howto\index2_zlib_source.html the link "MinGW-w64 setup" at the bottom of the page is broken, it should links to index41_mingw_install.html, not to paq8px\howto\index4_mingw.html.
Running _2_run_paq.cmd gives "Specified input is a directory but should be a file: ..\profile-suite" and paq8px exits immediately.
