Cerbero Windows builds have unusable backtraces
Submitted by Nirbheek Chauhan
Link to original bug (#797284)
Description
Since gstreamer core is built with Meson + MinGW, libffi is built with Autotools + MinGW, and Glib is built with Meson + MSVC, neither gdb nor Visual Studio can yield usable backtraces.
This is a regression from 1.14 where at least you could get usable backtraces with gdb.
The fix is to do one of the following:
- Move gstreamer-1.0, gst-*-1.0 and libffi to Meson + MSVC
or
- Move all Meson + MSVC recipes to Meson + MinGW. As of this writing, that's: proxy-libintl, zlib, glib, glib-networking, pango, fribidi, json-glib.
