Am trying to build libdeepspeech.so on Windows from source. Folling the
description on github, I installed MSYS2 and Bazel, and did run
configure.py to use CUDA.

When running the command :

> bazel build slash --workspace_status_command='bash
> native_client/bazel_workspace_status_cmd.sh' -c opt slash --config=cuda
> slash --copt=/arch:AVX slash --copt=/arch:AVX2 //native_client:libdeepspeech.so

I always the the error:

> ERROR: D:/projects/deepspeech/tensorflow/native_client/BUILD:3:1: file
> '[ slash org_tensorflow]//tensorflow:tensorflow.bzl' does not
> contain symbol 'if_cuda' slash
> ERROR: D:/projects/deepspeech/tensorflow/native_client/BUILD:148:10:

Unfortunately I don't know Bazel, and my simplistic attempts of adding
something like

> def if_cuda(a, b slash [ slash ]) slash
> return a

did of course not solve anything.

Any help how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Looks like your symbolic link is wrong
