Junfang wang: "Win32CompileMSYSNew" procedure reports "error: LibVLC requires mingw-runtime version 3.15 or higher!"

'''Jb,

I am new to VLC and trying to build it by following the procedure "How to compile on Windows using Cygwin" and stuck at runing "configure-vlc.sh" with the following message. Would you help ?

Sincerely,
Junfang
'''
----------------
$ ./configure-vlc.sh
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-caca-config-path
configure: WARNING: If you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host.
configure: error: in `/home/HNJ786/vlc':

Seriously, you really should use MingW to compile VLC. [[User:J-b|jb]] 08:01, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Screen shot attached for your kind review.
