Ah, I can confirm it here. The problem will not be apparent if you
already have an up-to-date copy of gretlmain.xml in the right place
(it hasn't changed lately). But the current Makefile puts it in the
wrong place, as Ignacio says (since early September, I think).
That's now fixed in git. Sorry for the inconvenience.
For people who've installed gretl from git in the last few weeks: I'm
afraid there will be some other litter from gretl in $prefix/share
that should be in $prefix/share/gretl; here's the full list:
ui
gretl-logo.xpm
NEWS
gretl.appdata.xml
(actually the last file should be in $prefix/share/appdata).
This error was fallout from modifying the Makefiles and configure
script so that you can now do the regular autotools ./configure, make
on Windows (if you have MSYS2 and MingW64), or in cross-compiling for
Windows.
