I've given up on the OSSBuild of PyGST (Gstreamer) due to several major bugs. Instead, I am building from source myself.
However, I have hit a snag. I am running this build in Cygwin. After unpacking the tarball, I run ./configure in the unpacked folder. I get the following error after a little while:
configure: error: you need gstreamer development packages installed:
Where do I download this? I have the latest version of GStreamer compiled and installed (also via Cygwin, without any issues.)
You need to tell it where to look for the headers from that GStreamer build, or copy them to (the cygwin version of) /usr/include or /usr/local/incude.
Try ./configure --help to see what option would let you pass the header dir. Also, back in the GStreamer dir, take a look in the makefile -- it may have already installed the headers somewhere, just not where PyGst is looking. You can check in subdirs under (the cygwin version of) /usr/include or /usr/local/include too.
