[webkit-help] Webkit-Cairo build failure

Brent can you clarify?  QTMovieWin is a component of the WebKit Visual
Studio solution.  
Therefore ...

[1] Where can I find a "stock" WinCairo solution?
[2] How do I "turn off" QuickTime support?

I haven't altered any of the build scripts and I am using the following
command in Cygwin ...
WebKit/Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --release --cairo-win32

 Can you please be more specific to help a newbie understand what your
solution is?
 
Thanks,
Chris

It looks like the problem is cropping up because you are building with
QuickTime support.  This is not currently a 'supported' build configuration,
mainly because I have not needed this feature (yet).

By default the Quicktime stuff is turned off, so I assume you modified the
build settings to enable it.

I would recommend backing out that modification and generating a 'stock'
WinCairo build first, to verify everything works properly.

Once that's done, we can troubleshoot what needs to be corrected to get
QuickTime support building.

Thanks,
