[Github-comments] [geany/geany] windres - fixing fatal error: when writing output to : Invalid argument (#1855)

[3togo]

I compiled git version in msys2 for x86_64  architecture according to the steps posted in the following link:
https://wiki.geany.org/howtos/win32/msys2 

I ended up with the following errors.  I fixed it by adding option "--use-temp-file" to "windres" in src/Makefile.am 

make[3]: Entering directory '/home/Dreli/geanyTemp/geany/src'
windres -i ../geany_private.rc --input-format=rc -o geany_private.res -O coff
../geany_private.rc:2:0: fatal error: when writing output to : Invalid argument

compilation terminated.
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\windres.exe: can't open file `page:': Invalid argument
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\windres.exe: preprocessing failed.
make[3]: [Makefile:1505: geany_private.res] Error 1 (ignored)
CCLD geany.exe
