Install optional packages

Install libcaca

Go to http://caca.zoy.org/wiki/libcaca

Download latest libcaca package:

libcaca-0.99.beta17.tar.gz

Unpack to c:\src

Modify c:\src\libcaca-0.99.beta17\caca\caca.h , c:\src\libcaca-0.99.beta17\caca\caca0.h and c:\src\libcaca-0.99.beta17\cxx\caca++.h:

Replace (case-sensitive) “ _WIN32 " with “ _MSC_VER ” and "(_WIN32)" with "(_MSC_VER)". This will prevent declspecs from being added to the function prototypes, since they are unnecessary when using the GNU toolchain (and the linker will complain about exporting non-existent functions).

Now do: 

cd /c/src/libcaca-0.99.beta17
libtoolize -cif && ./bootstrap && CXXFLAGS="-fno-common" CFLAGS="-fno-common" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-no-undefined" ./configure --prefix=/mingw
