Trying to build gstreamer on windows...

Wed Mar 12 08:41:32 PDT 2014

Thx for pointing me to the cerbero.
Now I encounter a issue when trying to build the bootstrap, which to my understanding will install all the needed tools and libs to builmd GStreamer.

When call 'cerbero bootstrap', I get the following logs :

$ cerbero bootstrap

Am I missing some steps?

gstreamer depend on tons of libraries. there is automatic build tool called cerbero http://docs.gstreamer.com/display/GstSDK/Building+from+source+using+Cerbero

just use this repository http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/sdk/cerbero which contain version which build recent 1.2 version of gstreamer

Hi,

I'm trying to build gstreamer on windows platform, I installed MinGW and MSys, with the developer packages.

Got the sources from git, then run ./autogen.sh

I get the following output :

$ ./autogen.sh
+ check for build tools
  checking for autoconf >= 2.68 ... found 2.68, ok.
  checking for automake >= 1.11 ... found 1.11.1, ok.
  checking for autopoint >= 0.17 ... found 0.18.3, ok.
  checking for libtoolize >= 2.2.6 ... found 2.4, ok.
  checking for pkg-config >= 0.8.0 ... found 0.28, ok.
+ checking for autogen.sh options
  This autogen script will automatically run ./configure as:
  ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-gtk-doc --enable-docbook --enable-failing-tests --enable-poisoning
  To pass any additional options, please specify them on the ./autogen.sh
  command line.
+ running autopoint --force...
autopoint: *** Missing version: please specify in configure.ac through a line 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(x.yy.zz)' the gettext version the package is using
autopoint: *** Stop.

autopoint failed

Any advice on how to fix this?

Is there somewhere with a proper windows build procedure explained?

Cheers,
Eric T.
