Compiling 3x — NSIS Forum Archive

when i try to compile the current 3x source code with the installer option via
scons-2.3.0 dist-installer SKIPUTILS="NSIS Menu"

I get the following error

Processing config: C:\nsis3src\.instdist\nsisconf.nsh

Processing script file: ".instdist\Examples\makensis.nsi" (ACP)

File: "..\NSIS.exe" -> no files found.

Usage: File [/nonfatal] [/a] ([/r] [/x filespec [...]] filespec [...] |

   /oname=outfile one_file_only)

Error in script ".instdist\Examples\makensis.nsi" on line 158 -- aborting creation process

scons: *** [.instdist\Examples\makensis] Error 1

scons: building terminated because of errors.

any idea whats wrong?

edit also after I compile more then once I start getting zlib not found error but I figured out if I delete .sconsign.dblite I can compile again without the zlib missing error not sure why it does that
