I updated quicktime4linux to 1.5.5, and solved an issue that causes transcode to fail to build. It is a headerfile issue (the quicktime dv.h is found first), about a header that quicktime4linux should not even install.
Created attachment 508 [details] Downport of fix to 1.3 Downport of the fix (not really checked, but should work)
Created attachment 509 [details] Updated quicktime4linux Update to the newest version of quicktime4linux
I don't understand this to be honest. What's downport?
I meant I applied the same fix to the old version of quicktime with less checking as with the new libquicktime. The fix basically only installs what the make install installs, so no libdv headers anymore as it conflicts with libdv when building transcode
Paul, thanks for the ebuild. I have added it to portage. What I do not like about this application is that there is no possibility of cross-compilation. That is just bad form. Note, that I am blaming upstream for this. Is there an alternate library that we can use that actually uses configure and make?
At the website of heroinewariours they say that they recommend the use of OpenQuicktime(.sourceforge.net) instead of quicktime4linux, the problem is that these libs are not entirely compatible and certain programs require one of them.
Closing the bug
