Hi Freddie,
Your patch fixed the problems and gave the warnings as you predicted!
I had a small stumble on the building of docs (help2man has the path
for perl hardcoded and in a mingw32 installation it is available in
the binary path).
However, even if after I tried calling manually doing 'perl
../build-aux/help2man... etc., it failed saying help2man could not get
--help from gst.
After that, make complained I have not autom4te (which is true, but
configure did not complain earlier).
I was able to run make check and now I installed it with make install.
Present status: command line gst seems to be working (will test more
thoroughly tomorrow) but even though I compiled using:
./configure --with-tcl=/mingw/lib/ --with-tk=/mingw/lib
And I have a tcl and a tk in my mingw32 installation, as well as the
tclConfig.sh and tkConfig.sh there, I could not run Blox.
Regards,
