After some proceed, I have met the following:
 
:
[download] fontconfig
[build]    fontconfig
[done]     fontconfig
make: *** No rule to make target 
`/e/usr/Tatsu/mingw32work/octave/mxe-octave/mxe-octave/installed-packages/build-gcc',
 needed by 
`/e/usr/Tatsu/mingw32work/octave/mxe-octave/mxe-octave/installed-packages/ghostscript'.
  Stop.

I do not find any 'ghostscript' in 
/e/usr/Tatsu/mingw32work/octave/mxe-octave/mxe-octave/installed-packages.

Any suggestions?
