the doc right now, perhaps the answer is already in there): When building
under Windows (mingw/msys) I cannot build the addons, because the configure
script doesn't find pdflatex.
Can I point to the existing pdflatex from the Miktex distribution or do I
have to install an extra Tex distribution inside mingw?
It should be sufficient to add the directory containing MiKTeX's
pdflatex executable to your PATH under MSYS2. See section 3.1 of the
guide "Building gretl on MS Windows".
