OK,
After looking more closely it appears that cross compiling for Android/Arm is not supported on a Windows system (is my understanding correct?) I have moved to an Ubuntu 13.04 / Raring system to try to make progress there instead. I have run into two issues:
1. When I try to bootstrap with config/cross-android.cbc I get two warnings:
"WARNING: No bootstrapper for the distro version android_gingerbread"
"WARNING: No bootstrapper for the distro version ubuntu_raring"
Can I safely ignore these warnings, or should I try to make them go away?
2. I ran into a problem in recipes/libmad.recipe line 27:
if Architecture.is_arm(self.config.target_arch):
I ran this command: cerbero-uninstalled -c config/cross-android.cbc package gstreamer-sdk
The error is:
"WARNING: Error loading recipe in file /home/user/gstreamer/gstreamer-sdk/cerbero/recipes/libmad.recipe class Architecture has no attribute 'is_arm'
I'm happy to short-circuit this conditional because everything I am doing is for ARM...but is this a clue that I am doing something else wrong?
3. If I hard-wire around the error in #2 I get this error:
DK can also be cross-compiled to Windows from Linux, but you should only use it for testing purpose. The DirectShow plugins cannot be cross-compiled yet and WiX can't be used with Wine yet, so packages can only be created from Windows.

It looks to me (just a guess) like it is trying to fetch /gstreamer/libiconv.git but it should be going for /gstreamer-sdk/libiconv.git
I figured there might be something wrong with my config files, but I haven't been able to find anything.
If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Hello,I'm trying to build Gstreamer for Android i.MX6 platform from my Win7 development machine. I have followed the directions here:If I understand correctly, I should be running all cerbero commands like this:cerbero-uninstalled -c config/cross-android.cbc <command>including the bootstrap command.When I run:cerbero-uninstalled -c config/cross-android.cbc bootstrapI get an error:Fatl Error: Error running command: sh -c "wget http://www.freedesktop.org/software/gstreamer-sdk/data/packages/2012.5/windows/toolchain/mingw-w64-gcc-4.7.3-windows-arm.tar.xz -O ..."When looking on the website in that directory the file doesn't exist. In fact I can't find anything with "arm" in the name.Any help is appreciated.-Steve
