Trying to build gstreamer on windows...

[Eric Trousset]

>From my analysis of the problem, it looks like somehow, the mingw path "/home/.../" is interpreted by python like a standard window path, and thus don't find it, and can't create it.

It looks like I may have python not well configured inside MinGw. 
Any advice on that?

Cheers, 
Eric T
