OK, but now that I found cvsdeps/howl I should not need to change that
I guess...

Probably not, what is this tool?? Where do I find it?

I added the ones I did not have too:
cvsdeps\bonjour
cvsdeps\infozip
cvsdeps\infozip\c-headers
cvsdeps\u3 sdk\dapi

It improved somewhat, 169 errors versus 172 before. Now all except one
are caused by the missing file plugin_interface.h  :-(

Here are the two types of errors I still have:
genbuild fatal error LNK1241: resource file genbuild.res already
specified (one only)

f:\Engineering\Projects\cvsnt\cvstools\TriggerLibrary.h(21): fatal
error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'plugin_interface.h': No such
file or directory (168 errors)

I won't install VS 2005 until some OpenSource project I follow needs
it...
