<html> <head> <style></style></head> <body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi all, I am now porting some Gstreamer applications from Linux to Windows. Because I hacked some Gstreamer elements so I need to build these elements for Win32 platform. My system is Win7 32bit. I followed instructions from <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/wiki/SettingUpMinGWMSysEnvironment" target="_blank">http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/wiki/SettingUpMinGWMSysEnvironment</a> to setup environment. All went ok but failed when installing git: xmlto: /src/mingw/git-1.7.4-2/bld/Documentation/git-add.xml does not validate (status 3) xmlto: Fix document syntax or use --skip-validation option I/O error : Attempt to load network entity http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd d:/project/gst/src/mingw/git-1.7.4-2/bld/Documentation/git-add.xml:2: warning: failed to load external entity "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" D DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" ^ I/O error : Attempt to load network entity http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd warning: failed to load external entity "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" Could not load the external subset "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" Document d:/project/gst/src/mingw/git-1.7.4-2/bld/Documentation/git-add.xml does not validate make[1]: *** [git-add.1] Error 13 make[1]: Leaving directory `/src/mingw/git-1.7.4-2/bld/Documentation' make: *** [doc] Error 2 failure at line 251 I can access http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd in my web browser without error, so I don't know why the error. Then I skipped git install an tried gtk-doc. It failed too: checking for xmlcatalog... /bin/xmlcatalog checking for DocBook XML DTD V4.3 in XML catalog... /src/mingw/gtk-doc-1.18-1/gtk-doc-1.18/configure: line 11450: 8776 Segmentation fault (core dumped) ( $XMLCATALOG --noout "$XML_CATALOG_FILE" "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3//EN" 1>&2 ) 2>&5 not found configure: error: could not find DocBook XML DTD V4.3 in XML catalog failure at line 264 Then I followed the wiki and installed automake, libffi, popt without error. glib-2.0 requires gtk-doc, and pkg-config requires glib, so they both failed. I am not quite familiar with MinGW, could anyone give me some hints? Thank you very much! Rafael </div></body> </html>
