Description Vincent Torri 2007-01-04 19:53:06 UTC 
matroska plugin must link against -lz. With MinGW, -lz is not automatically added, hence an error.

This should fix it (if I understood the problem correctly), please re-open if it doesn't:

       * gst/matroska/Makefile.am:
         If zlib is available and used, we must link it explicitly for
         things to work on MingW (fixes #392855).


When filing bugs about compile/linker errors, it's a good idea to always copy the entire make/compiler/linker output (ie. the whole compiler/linker line and the exact error message) into the bug report. That often makes it easier to see what's going on.
