Hi Nicolas,

Thats for the information! Regarding your remark:

For the stupid… what do I have to / change in cerebro do to get this done. I mean to build with the MinGW coming with the diistro ( actually gcc 5.3.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.2 ).

Well yes,

is there any document or script or whatever that helps me on doing that.
How was the 4.7.3 binary toolchain package build that is downloaded by cerebra bootstrap?

I do believe it was built by hand (msys). What I remember is that it was really unstable back then, and using official binary would crash in the compiler. I think it's different today, and we should try again to bootstrap from official builds. You need to modify the Cerbero recipe to pick from upstream instead of GStreamer mirror.

For your interest, on Linux we use MinGW from the distros, which seems to work (it's also faster). You can generate windows builds compatible with qt this way. Also, long/term, we want to move using meson/msvc instead.

Regards,
Nicolas

Is there a reason why Cerebro still uses MinGW Version 4.7.3 ?

I ask because I run into trouble when I tried to use gstreamer with Qt 5.8 based on MinGW 5.3.0,
as the generated  libstdc++ libraries are not compatible between QT and Gstreamer!

It would be nice if we would have an option to set the  Version of MinGW !

Roland
