<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>I want to
build vlc in cygwin, I have tried many versions and packages but still can't
success build one.<br>
I have several questions:<br>
1.The newest version of mingw-runtime in cygwin is 3.14-1, not 3.11-1, is there
any difference between them? Should I use 3.11-1?<br>
2.In the INSTALL.win32, it said the contrib libs should put in /usr/win32/, but
some contrib-....win32...tar.bz2 packages are extract to /usr/win32-branch/,
what the difference between win32/ and win32-branch/ ? should I change the
directories in './configure.sh' from /usr/win32/ to /usr/win32-branch/ or
create a win32/ link to win32-branch/ or rename win32-branch/ to win32/ ? The
last method seems has some problems.<br>
3.Some articles said /usr/win32/bin/moc rcc uic should be deleted, but in some
contrb packages I can't find these files in this directory, why?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Now I
download vlc-0.8.6d.tar.bz2 and contrib-20070412-win32-0.8.6b-bin-gcc-3.4.5-only.tar.bz2.<br>
