grep -r "ticks_per_frame" /usr/include/libavcodec/ Should give you: /usr/include/libavcodec/avcodec.h: int ticks_per_frame; I can't reproduce. Looks to me like you have an old version of ffmpeg installed somewhere else (/usr/local?) try to do: find /usr /opt -name avcodec.h to see if this is what's the problem.

Yes, I have some old/special version of ffmpeg installed in /usr/local which is used for a frozen project. Many thanks for this quick and precise guess! (Or is this even a common problem with installed packages in /usr/local?) Now, of course, there remains one last (and possible easy solvable) problem: how do I hide this version in /usr/local?

Many thanks for this quick and precise guess! (Or is > this even a common problem with installed packages in /usr/local?) The package was erring on a header change that was made in February. Easy guess. > Now, of course, there remains one last (and possible easy solvable) problem: > how do I hide this version in /usr/local? Generally, avoid installing things in /usr/local if you want to install the same thing with portage, since /usr/local always overrides /usr. Install to some other directory and make a wrapper for your program that sets up LD_LIBRARY_PATH and so on to point to /other/directory
