Bugzilla Bug 135153

gst-plugins-ffmpeg-0.10.1 fails to link.
It seems something forgot to link against Xlib.

I'm using modular X.

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

ffplay.c:(.text+0x32ab): undefined reference to `XCloseDisplay'

I have the same problem.. 
Already reemerged libsdl with Use="X" but nothing ... 
This happens after upgrade to gcc 4.1.1 and emerge -e world

is this a known ffmpeg problem in general ?

Uh... why you're trying to build ffplay ?_?

I'm not trying anything. It's being installed from plain ebuild.
The ebuild uses econf, emake and then emake DESTDIR=${D} install.

Sorry I wasn't clear :) I was asking that to the gstreamer team, not to you :)

I think that is something for zaheer to answer, but afaik he's away for a
couple of days.

Having the same problem with gcc from svn...

I've included "-lX11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib" to CFLAGS in my make.conf (as written in
102094) and was able to compile it.

I can confirm that including "-lX11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib" to CFLAGS in my make.conf
made it emerge.

It seems only ffserver and ffmpeg are disabled in configure.ac. Adding
"--disable-ffplay" to the econf command in the ebuild solves the problem.

(In reply to comment #10)

I have confirmed this solution for editing the ebuild with econf
--disable-ffplay.  'CFLAGS="-lX11 -L/usr/X11R6/lib" emerge gst-plugins-ffmpeg'
had no effect for me and actually created more undefinded references.  I did
have X as a USE flag for libsdl from the beginning.

econf --disable-ffplay works for me too ... what about a -r1 ebuild?

Thanks, fixed now
