Description Marcin Lewandowski 2016-06-25 11:42:07 UTC 
it seems that bootstrap does not install all required dependencies for gst-transcoder:


[(88/90) gst-transcoder -> configure ]
***** Error running 'build' command:
Recipe 'gst-transcoder' failed at the build step 'configure'

./configure: 3: ./configure: Bad substitution
You should install mesonbuild to build gst-transcoder: http://mesonbuild.com/
You can simply install it with:
    $ sudo pip3 install meson
Running command './configure --prefix /root/cerbero-home/dist/windows_x86_64  --libdir=lib/ '

This is something provided by the pitivi people not the GStreamer project.
Comment 2 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2016-06-27 06:36:45 UTC 
Also this has currently the problem that meson requires python 3, while cerbero requires python 2.
