A question on building Irrlicht from source

I used this tutorial to build Irrlicht's source:
http://www.irrlicht3d.org/wiki/index.ph ... ildWindows

The build was successful, but the compiler gave this warning:

Files\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.CppBuild.targets(990,5): warning MSB8012: TargetPath(C:\irrlicht-1.7.2\source\Irrlicht\obj\Debug\Irrlicht.dll) does not match the Linker's OutputFile property value (C:\irrlicht-1.7.2\bin\Win32-visualstudio\Irrlicht.dll). This may cause your project to build incorrectly. To correct this, please make sure that $(OutDir), $(TargetName) and $(TargetExt) property values match the value specified in %(Link.OutputFile).

Is the tutorial missing a step or did I do something wrong?

The problem must be in Irrlicht8.0.sln?

I assume you're trying to use the VS2008 solution in VS2010, this is not a problem, but it comes with some minor issues
If you check your linker properties you'll see that the OutputFile property is not the same as the TargetPath property in you global settings, these 2 should be the same so please make sure that they are
