  GStreamer | gstreamer (core) | Ver: 0.10.10

           Summary: PYTHON_INCLUDES var wrongly created in MinGW Makefiles
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.10
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: mrc.gran at gmail.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


The execution of gstreamer-0.10.10 configure in in MinGW results in the
following line inside gstreamer core and gst-python project Makefiles in my
system:

PYTHON_INCLUDES = -Ic:\appl\python24/include/python2.4

Note the backward slashes in the path to the python24 folder. This causes
problem when Makefile executes, and the compiler (gcc) cannot find python
header files.

Replacing the backward slashes to forward ones corrects this problem:
E.g. in my system the Makefile line below correctly instructs my gcc compiler
to build the MinGW object file:
PYTHON_INCLUDES = -Ic:/appl/python24/include/python2.4

This probably occurs in all gstreamer projects. The two projects above are the
ones I tested.
