I've tried to build some packages from source code. I've been solving many error so far but I reach one point where I can't find any solution even after spending hours of searching online. I think the problem is the line "checking for set-gcc... no" but what is "set-gcc". I've tried "apt install set-gcc" but it is not the package name.

As jww pointed out, a solution is to edit configure.ac. And if it works to submit this change upstream.
But you can probably get away with just editing the configure script. Look for the string 26 27 28 and add 29 at the end.
Since the author of the software you are trying to compile didn't test this combination, there is of course the chance that there were incompatible changes in neon and it doesn't work.
I want to build MinGW-w64 where:
A: I want to compile MinGW itself on Linux (64-bit).
B: I want the MinGW tools (compiler, etc) to run on Linux (64-bit).
C: I want the MinGW tools (compiler, etc) to produce code that runs on Windows 64-bit (Win7 & Win8).
I'm having trouble at the configure stage. I've googled around a bit but I can't find out what options I need to pass to configure.
I have downloaded the source for MinGW-w64 SVN from (https://svn.code.sf.net/p/mingw-w64/code/trunk/).
(AFAICT this is the current official repo).
The source has a text help (mingw-w64-doc/howto-build/mingw-w64-howto-build.txt). However, this is primarily intended for those wanting to run MinGW tools on Windows.
The example options (for a non-multilib w64 target) are: --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --target=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --disable-multilib
But I think I want the host option to refer to linux (right?). I've tried --host=x86_64-linux-gnuand --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu but no luck.
I get the error:
configure: error: Please check if the mingw-w64 header set and the build/host option are set properly.
configure: error: ../../../svn/mingw-w64-v6615-2014-05-07/mingw-w64-crt/configure failed for mingw-w64-crt

NOTE: I can successfully compile native GCC & Clang from source.
Purpose:
My ultimate goal is to use the latest Clang to produce C++14 code for Windows 7/8 64-bit (including D3D11 & OpenGL).
I want to build trunk MinGW because the latest Clang produces assembly code that the default MinGW cannot assemble (mainly "junk at end of line" errors).
As of 2014-05-07 (today), only Clang offers full C++14 support, and I am making use of features only available in Clang (eg: variable templates).
Yet, Clang relies on GCC / MinGW for assembling and linking.
Info:
OS: Linux Mint 16 64-bit (XFCE).
Thanks for all assistance.
Old question, but an answer might be helpful to those coming from google.
The host and build flags are a bit misleading. The info from the help page at mingw-w64-crt/configure --help shows:
System types:
--build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
--host=HOST cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST [BUILD]
So we want to leave --build alone, and specify the windows system we wish to cross-compile for with --host.
So, the way to build for 64bit windows, and include both 32bit and 64bit libraries and std::experimental features is with:
./configure --enable-lib32 --enable-lib64 --enable-experimental --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32
It's very similar if you want to build for 32bit windows, but of course you can't enable 64bit mode:
./configure --enable-lib32 --enable-experimental --host=i686-w64-mingw32
https://github.com/Zeranoe/mingw-w64-build
I think your answer is here:
./mingw-w64-build x86_64 for 64bit;
or
./mingw-w64-build x86_64 i686 for 32bit.
I met the same error while configuring. After reading the shell in mingw-w64-build this file, I think you will have to execute:
./configure in folder ../x86_64-w64-v8.0.0/mingw-w64-headers,
then
./configure in folder ../x86_64-w64-v8.0.0/mingw-w64-crt,
and finally
./configure in folder ../x86_64-w64-v8.0.0/mingw-w64-libraries/winpthreads.
I did not verify the whole process manually, because this shell file just did the job.
Maybe you could try this - its the latest version of mingw and you dont have to compile it by yourself:
https://github.com/Zeranoe/mingw-w64-build
it supports almost all distros...

Did i miss any package or something else?
I am hoping for help. This is my first time with cygwin and rtorrent... obviously i need to figure things out before going further :O
You're missing a C compiler in your cygwin environment. Run the cygwin setup again and choose to install g++, and you should see progress.
