I am using ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226 for compatibility with Intel's OpenCV library. I previously had installed ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226-r5, but that was removed from portage. Now when I emerge ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226-r3, I get an error for a missing patch: * Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE! Value for $EPATCH_SOURCE is: * * /usr/portage/media-video/ffmpeg/files/gentoo-ffmpeg001.patch * ( gentoo-ffmpeg001.patch ) `emerge --sync` does not solve this problem. I guess it's either a matter of tha patch missing from the portage tree, or the ebuild containing an erroneous line, but I'm not sure which.
Hmm... Has anyone gotten a chance to check this bug out? It's been unresolved for a while now.
Created attachment 95393 [details, diff] needed patch file for testing
copy the contens in a file named "gentoo-ffmpeg001.patch" move the file to /usr/portage/media-video/ffmpeg/files/ make a "ebuild media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226 digest" now you can make your "emerge ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226" but be aware: 1.) sometimes there is a reason for removing of patch-file 2.) after an "emerge portage" or "emerge --sync" the patch-file is lost (use a portage overlay insted)
Created attachment 96936 [details, diff] modified libdir-pic patch To get this to compile, I also had to modify ffmpeg-libdir-pic.patch so that the PIC flag was not used at compile time. Without this modification, I got compile errors in the x86 asm code: i386/dsputil_mmx_avg.h:58: error: can't find a register in class `BREG' while reloading `asm' ... i386/mpegvideo_mmx_template.c:93: error: can't find a register in class `GENERAL_REGS' while reloading `asm' I've attached my modified patch.
