The wiki has no up to date information on 0.7.

What is needed to do a build of eqemu 0.7.0?

zlib, mysql, perl, what else?

A lot of luck, a lot of luck, Oh! and A LOT OF LUCK!
Better just get the binaries they post, but first, go to the link soulshot posted. That will start you off with the first version of 0.7.0 - then, its just a matter of copying over the new binaries to the eqemu directory. MySql database is always the same, you have to build on it yourself if you want more.

The link for ActiveState Perl 5.8 gives me a DNS Error.

Am I the only one?
Is it likely temporary?
Are there alternatives?

Start PPM , enter command :

rep add Winnipeg http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/cgi-bin/ppmserver?urn:/PPMServer58


Should add the repository to PPM . I had to run a search through the repository a couple times to get it to find the ones needed.

( Note: Make sure that url in the command isn't truncated or it wont work.)

All of the source code that I know of , thats recent , is on the activestate website. Can try google , but im not sure if they're the latest source or not.
Sorry , but good luck.

All you need is zlib/perl/mysql and it seems u already have those.
for include files..
\zlib\include
\mysql\include
\Perl\lib\CORE
library files..
\zlib\lib
\mysql\lib\opt
\perl\lib

thats all i can think of atm off the top of my head.
