yes, it's quite confusing.

All of the 'current' MInGW binaries (in tar.gz & tar.bz2
packages), plus msys.exe. Install msys.exe (best
place seems c:\msys) then unpack all the tar.gz files in
that directory), then using the mingw shell, bunzip2 the
bz2 files and untar them in the same place).

The dir structure will look like this:

c:\msys\1.0\
               \bin
               \lib
                ...
               \mingw\bin
               \mingw\lib
               ...

The gcc etc packages seem to end up on .\mingw\bin  etc

Anyway, then you need to install Python2.4, scons and
libsndfile. For extras, such as portaudio, fltk etc, you
also need to get these and build them. That bit is
straightforward, mostly using autotools (the old
'./configure').

For more help, don't hesitate.

SubjectRe: [Cs-dev] MinGW questions
Thanks, Victor, that's very helpful.  When you say "all", do you mean 
all of GCC, MSYS DTK, MinGW Runtime, MinGW Utilities, TclTK, Windows 
API, binutils, gdb, make, and mingwPORT (list taken from 
http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml)?  Under GCC, can I skip the 
following packages: ada, g77, java, objc, testsuite?

Also can I use Python 2.5, which I had already installed, or must it be 2.4?
