I don't know what your experience with C is - if you have posted 
anything in c.l.c. that indicates that, it must have been too long ago 
for me to remember.  But a number of people with decades long experience 
of not only working with C, but helping people in c.l.c. with their C 
problems, have made it clear that this is /not/ a C question.  They also 
did their best to help the OP - giving what help they could despite this 
being the wrong place and the question being off-topic, and they did 
their best to redirect the OP to places where he might get more useful help.

Originally, people /politely/ pointed out that the post was off-topic, 
and the OP was unlikely to get good help here.  Indeed, I don't think 
anyone has been other than polite to the OP.

But there have been two people in this thread who have perhaps been 
rude, arrogant and insulting - insisting that /they/ know better than 
the regulars about what is topical and not topical for the group.  Those 
posters have not in any way been helpful, and are just a waste of 
bandwidth for everyone else.

I don't know what you think you are trying to achieve here.  Do you 
think that your complaints will somehow magically make the OP's problem 
about the C programming language, rather than the build process for a 
particular and specific complex piece of software?  Do you think that by 
posting repeatedly, someone here will suddenly realise they know 
something that could help the OP?  Do you think you will change the 
group topicality?

All you have achieved is annoying some people, and ensuring that the 
thread can't develop topically.

If you want to understand what is topical or not for this group, 
consider if a question could conceivably by used as an example or an 
exercise in a published book about learning or using the C programming 
language.  Then it is probably on-topic.  If you'd only find it in a 
book called "C programming for Windows", or "Systems programming in 
Unix", or "C development with gcc", then it is likely to be too 
specific.  The OP's question is far too niche for any kind of book at 
all - he needs to look at build instructions for Python to understand 
what is going on.
