Description Francois Fernandes 2004-03-27 02:49:03 UTC

When I try to emerge gnome the build stops on gst-plugins-0.6.4 because of the following problem:

msmpeg4.c: In function `msmpeg4_pred_dc':
msmpeg4.c:705: error: can't find a register in class `GENERAL_REGS' while reloading `asm'

I have no idea of what I could do, even googling didn't help

I've got Kernel 2.6.3 installed with built in ALSA, could this be the problem?

I'm also not able to use gst-plugins-0.8.0 (wich compile fine), because gnome (or a dependecy) depends on gst-plugins-0.6.4. So when I emerge gnome it tries to downgrade my version of gstreamer & gst-plugins...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
emerge gst-plugins

Actual Results:  
Complete crash of compile...

Comment 2 Francois Fernandes 2004-03-27 03:23:48 UTC

I now found out, that gst-plugins won't compile if you use optimization flags like: -O2 -O3... I've used -O and now it works...

What could be the reason?

probably your weird arch/cpu CFLAGS. We can't make it work for every set of CFLAGS out there.

gst-plugins-0.8 is still masked, because it's not ready yet.
