I get the following error while compiling gst-plugins-ffmpeg (gnome-2.14 dependency)

ffplay-ffplay.o: In function `main':

If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful.

EDIT: Apparently I needed to remerge libsdl with USE="X".. Several hours wasted just trying to figure it out. Go figure.

I am getting this same error, however, I already have libsdl built with USE=X. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Yup.. I have the same problem.. I emerge it with X use flag but is the same.

Same problem. libSDL was already emerged with X use flag.

I am also having this problem. Use flags are all set correctly. Any answers?

Another having this problem after switching to ~amd64 (from amd64), already tried re-emerging libsdl... X use flag was already set.

I have the same problem after upgrading the gcc to v 4.1.1. I thing that will be problem with correct linking the gcc to X.org libraries in make command line. Is there a bug in bugs.getno.org?

Having the same problem, libsdl compiled with X USE flag, bug is allready filed here.

EDIT: I've included "-lX11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib" to my CFLAGS in make.conf and was able to compile it.

Trash workaround... I'll give a try!

I had this same problem. Here's another solution that might help someone, this worked for me.

Code: Select all

CFLAGS="`emerge --info | sed -n -e's/^CFLAGS="\(.*\)"/\1/gp'` -lX11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib" emerge -av gst-plugins-ffmpeg

It basically appends the '-lX11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib' to the end of CFLAGS just for this run of emerge without modifying make.conf, like slano mentions above.

The bug is back with the upgrade gst-plugins-ffmpeg-0.8.7-r1
