Body
I've been strugling for two weeks to create an environment for building a gstreamer plugin on windows (needed for a songbird addon). I've installed MSYS, MinGW and Cygwin, then installed GStreamer OSSBuild, and I also downloaded the sources for Songbird, which come with their own precompiled version of gstreamer. I was unable to run gst-inspect (or any other gstreamer applications) from the songbird sources and I figured I will settle for OSSBuild (as I was able to run gst-inspect from the compiled OSSBuild). When following the instructions for building a GST plugin (<a href="http://www.gstreamer.net/data/doc/gstreamer/head/pwg/html/section-boiler-project-stamp.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">found here</a>) through, cygwin will not recognize the OSSBuild and the build fails when running autogen, with the following error: <pre><code>checking for GST... no configure: error: You need to install or upgrade the GStreamer development packages on your system. On debian-based systems these are libgstreamer0.10-dev and libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev. on RPM-based systems gstreamer0.10-devel, libgstreamer0.10-devel or similar. The minimum version required is 0.10.16. configure failed </code></pre> I could also not use MSYS or MinGW as they are unable to run autogen at all. I understand that cygwin <a href="http://lists.zerezo.com/cygwin/msg38656.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">should have it's own gstreamer development packages</a> but I couldn't find how to install them. My question: How do I install the gstreamer packages in cygwin or how do I build using cygwin with the OSSBuild dependencies? In short, how do I get an environment where I can build a gstreamer plugin under windows?
