Most of these missing libraries are harmless for it not to find. It needs
boost, libtiff, and OpenEXR. Almost everything else is optional, and the build
will just skip over the specific parts of OIIO that require those optional
libraries.
You are welcome to transfer to Linux, but I'd prefer that we try to work out
what's awkward with the Windows build. It's certainly possible to build under
Windows -- lots of people do. But they probably worked out what was hard,
fixed it on their end, and either forgot or simply never sent fixes back to us.
We can then go a long time without noticing the problems again, until a new
batch of developers comes along building for Windows for the first time (such
as the start of GSoC season). This is an opportunity for us -- let's try to
fix the build and/or the docs so that first-time Windows builders can make it
work without help. It's worth the extra effort.
