I was trying to build Windows executable but fail with errors. Fortunately after some research I was success. Here are some experience.

  1. build MXE tool fail with cmd "make pthreads ffmpeg wxwidgets -j8 JOBS=8"
  • Use the Ubuntu environment, update all the components and try again ( I can build success in WSL Ubuntu 18.04 lts, and fail in CentOS 7.10)
  • Not need to patch "mxe.diff", it may not work with lastest MXE ;)
  • A stable network. During building you need to confirm google.com can be accessing.
  1. build Spek fail with error "possibly undefined macro: AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG"
  • Edit "autogen.sh" in project root dir, add " -I ../mxe/usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/share/aclocal/" after "autoreconf -fiv" in line 9

First stage of the workflow complete
6d0751a 
* MXE build working, can't use a pre-compiled package as Spek needs to patch ffmpeg
* it takes over ~2 hours to build, so added cache action size = ~2GB... GitHub has a 10GB limit per repo
* Depedencies for MXE are the same to build Spek
* Still had to use fix, paths are tweaked from alexkay#189
* Upload the build artifact for the second stage to use.  This includes the windows binary, wxs, and tests
