After emerging x264-svn the library libx264.a is in /usr/lib/ but the corresponding libx264.so is not. Software using this lib will compile without x264 support or compile not at all.

Created attachment 77812 [details, diff] x264-svn-sobuild.patch patch for Makefile to build also libx264.so
Created attachment 77814 [details] x264-svn-20051004-r2.ebuild modified ebuild to use the patch and build libx264.so
hi, here with or without this .so, ffmpeg doesnt recognize x264. but if i add this patch : bug #116900 it detects x264 even if the .so is not here.
