[vlc-devel] Problems cross compiling to windows according to Win32Compile

[David R. Robison]

I was able to solve the problem as outlined in the following thread: 
https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=118201
The trick was to undo the following change to configure.ac

-  AS_IF([test "$build" = "$host" -o "$PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR"], [
-    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${CONTRIB_DIR}/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
-  ], [
-    export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR="${CONTRIB_DIR}/lib/pkgconfig"
-  ])
+  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${CONTRIB_DIR}/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"


Doing that allowed the compile to complete.
