Error while building Linphone for windows
I am trying to build linphone for windows by following the instructions in Readme.mingw using MinGw/Msys. There is no issues till the download of belle-sip package.
When I run ./autogen.sh I am getting the below error.

Can anyone point out where I went wrong and give the steps for successful build?
Any help is appreciated.
Answer
Given this specific part of the error output:
Can't locate Automake/Config.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /mingw/share/automake-1. 11 ....
It looks that the /mingw path does not exist, which means it should be added as an alias to c:\mingw in the fstab file.
See the MinGW Installation Notes for a step-by-step howto.
