[vlc] Errors with libraries when building vlc for win32 under cygwin

[personel personel]

Hello everyone,


I am trying to build vlc for windows under cygwin.
I am using a recent snapshot
(vlc-snapshot-20071208.tar.bz2 ) and a Win32 contrib
package (already built). I have the 3 following
errors:

g++: .libs/libvlc_la-libvlc.o: No such file or
directory

g++: .libs/libvlc_la-libvlc-common.o: No such file or
directory

g++: .libs/libvlc_la-libvlc-module.o: No such file or
directory

I found 3 files in a folder with the same name but
extension .lo . I think that they are used to build
shared libraries (*.la) and that *.o are used for
static libraries (*.a). So here I have the files to
build shared libraries but the intent seems to build
static libraries. I did not modify the makefiles or
something else from the snapshots. So, except your
respect, the mix comes from the work of vlc
developpers. Did you try to move from a static lib
implementation to a shared lib one? If yes, when, so I
will take a sufficiently old snapshot to avoid this
problem?

Best regards,

abraxis

Note: The exact output is reproduced below. The errors
appear in the last few lines.
