Research direction

Start by reproducing the errors on step 6 with GCC and MinGW, recording the operating system, tool versions, and the exact preceding steps. Investigate the GPGME and resource-unavailable messages; the issue is resolved when step 6 completes without these errors and the required environment details are documented.
