python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32 installsetup.py allows multiple steps, like build and install, to be listed in one command. The install option doesn't recognize the --compiler option, but the build option. The build option, which install uses when need, does recognize --compiler. I once submitted a Python bug report about install and --compiler, but accepted this work around.

Thanks guys, I've got it all working now. The second step with:

This would be from a patch msys_build_deps.py makes to work around
freetypes being built in strict mode, that is, no extensions like
'inline'. The MinGW stdlib.h has an inlined function, causing the
compile to fail. I believe René used a different fix from mine. So
to disable mine edit msys_build_deps.py and comment out line 549
with a '#':
export CPPFLAGS="-Dinline=__inline__ $CPPFLAGS"
If that fails with some error about 'inline' not recognized then
the MinGW header include\stdlib.h will have to be edited on line
317 to replace 'inline' with '__inline__'. By the way, which
version of gcc are you using? This gave me no problems with gcc 3.4.5.

Right now I'm compiling the rest, so we'll see if there's any
other errors.

hi,
try this:

Okay, so
I take your package there, unzip it. I copy the pygame
source
code trunk into there. I then use the windows cmd, and
cd into
that directory, and run python setup.py --compiler=mingw32
install ?
I'm sorry, but you're going to need explicate more
steps, and
that, because nothing is working for me. Doing the above,
after I removed mingw32, and msys, then reinstalled
them, then
unzipped the msyscore archive in the msys directory to
update
to 1.0.11, I get this:
Hunting dependencies....
/bin/sh/ : sdl-config: No such directory or file
WARNING: "sdl-config" failed!
/bin/shL smpeg-config: No such directory or file
WARNING: "smpeg-config" failed!
Normally things work for me, but I'm having a lot of
trouble
here, because nothing is clear, and Windows has the worst
command-line utility around. This is by no means a
condemnation of you guys, just that you guys are expecting
more out of me, and its just not happening.

They are the installers for mingw stuff I last
installed
on my windows machine to compile pygame. Other people
have used those to successfully compile it too... so it
should work.
Also, if you get the dependency sources that Lenard
collected on his page in one bundle:
http://www3.telus.net/len_l/pygame/Pygame-1.9.0-deps-src.zip
I think the directory structure matters too:
# directory with all the source deps in it:
pygame/
# the trunk is here:
pygame/PyGame/

Those steps should include properly install

using the prebuilts. Thanks for the effort Lenard.

Which package are you trying to build.
Unless the thing crashed
completely msys_build_deps.py should
have
displayed a listing at
the end showing where it stalled,
that is,
it will show which DLL
were not installed. The packages taken
straight form SVN may not
have a .configure file.
msys_build_deps.py
will create those
automatically for SDL, SDL_mixer and
smpeg.
If any other packages
were taken from SVN then it will
fail. To
manually create a
configure file start the Msys
console, go
into the package's root
directory and type './autogen.sh'.
Anyway, the general Unix steps
msys_build_deps.py takes to
installing a package are:
./autogen.sh # only for SVN packages
./configure
make
make install
strip /usr/local/bin/<lib-name>.DLL
The msys shell scripts run to build the
packages are found at the
end of msys_build_deps.py

Hi Tyler,
I wrote msys_build_deps.py
and look
after the Windows
dependencies. I haven't seen this
error before. I run the
program
on both Win 98 and XP. If you are
using Msys 1.0.10 try
upgrading
to 1.0.11. I only user 1.0.10
because 1.0.11 doesn't work
on Win
98 and I have limited access
to XP.
Msys 1.0.11 will be
needed to
build ffmpeg anyway, since
the bash
shell in 1.0.10 is
apparently
too old for the ffmpeg configure
script. If you continue having
problems then just use the
prebuilt
dependencies for now:
http://www3.telus.net/len_l/pygame/prebuilt-pygame1.9.0-msvcr71-win32.zip
(for Python 2.4-2.5)
(md5sum
0c9b5c65dbd10b5469d2523cf58b7890)
http://www3.telus.net/len_l/pygame/prebuilt-pygame1.9.0-msvcr90-win32.zip
(for Python 2.6-3.x)
(md5sum
8dcd7e7c840d656c3ca7576095777c81)
Install the prebuilt
directory into
the Pygame root
directory, run
config.py and answer 'n' to msys
built, 'y' to use prebuilts.
I suppose now I must really
try to
get ffmpeg built.

Thats a

python msys_build_deps.py
--all
Python is installed. Msys is
installed, but throwing
that error.
And no worries. I just wasn't

Why are you trying to
install
Python under CygWin?
From what I
understand, most
programmers
consider that a
separate platform
from Windows. You should
probably try to install the
native
windows version,
instead of
the linux version
running under
cygwin. Sorry if I
misunderstood you.
