building gstreamer with cerbero on windows error

[SKilb]

thank you for your reply.

I deleted everything and started completely new following this guide
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/installing/building-from-source-using-cerbero.html

bootstrap runs without problems. However I noticed that it creates a new
mingw folder "cerbero\build\mingw\w64" is this normal?
I also found out, that with Visual Studio 2017 the environment variable
VSCOMNTOOLS150 is missing, so I set this path directly "C:/Program Files
(x86)/Microsoft Visual
Studio/2017/Professional/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.12.25827/bin/Hostx86/x86/" in the
gelib.py script and it removed the warnings I had before, while executing
bootstrap.

But package gstreamer-1.0 throws some warnings and errors.

[(2/82) gettext -> gen_library_file ]
WARNING: Some libraries weren't found while searching!
libintl
WARNING: Could not create libintl.lib, no matching DLLs found

[(3/82) libiconv-> gen_library_file ]
WARNING: Some libraries weren't found while searching!
libiconv
libcharset
WARNING: Could not create libiconv.lib, no matching DLLs found
WARNING: Could not create libcharset.lib, no matching DLLs found

and then it fails completely at [(6/82) glib -> configure ]
