OK so now using MinGW I can run the configure script and that seems to
work fine.

Cool!

Then I run make and I get this output:

Making all in louis
make[1]: Entering directory `/c/liblouis-3.1.0/python/louis'
source ../../liblouis/liblouis.la ; \

/bin/sh: ../../liblouis/liblouis.la: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [all] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/liblouis-3.1.0/python/louis'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

Sorry about that. Just recently Chris Brannon provided a fix for that. Either use liblouis from master (https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/archive/master.zip), use his patch (https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/pull/325) or very hackishly remove "import louis" from python/setup.py and change the version in that same file to "3.1.0".

Hope that helps
