The configure script of seamonkey-2.7.1 uses a strange test for a recent version of libvpx : #include <vpx/vpx_decoder.h> #if !defined(VPX_CODEC_USE_INPUT_PARTITION) #error "test failed." #endif But VPX_CODEC_USE_INPUT_PARTITION isn't defined in libvpx-1.0.0 anymore. Therefore the configure script "thinks" libvpx is too old : checking for libvpx version >= v0.9.7... no configure: error: --with-system-libvpx requested but it is not v0.9.7 or later Helmut.
The same is true for firefox and thunderbird!
Can confirm that: checking for vpx/vpx_decoder.h... yes checking for vpx_codec_dec_init_ver in -lvpx... yes Error: * In program cave perform install --hooks --managed-output --output-exclusivity with-others =www-client/firefox-10.0.1-r1:0::gentoo --destination installed --replacing =www-client/firefox-10.0.1:0::installed --x-of-y 10 of 10: * When installing 'www-client/firefox-10.0.1-r1:0::gentoo' replacing { 'www-client/firefox-10.0.1:0::installed' }: * When running an ebuild command on 'www-client/firefox-10.0.1-r1:0::gentoo': * Install failed for 'www-client/firefox-10.0.1-r1:0::gentoo' (paludis::ActionFailedError) checking for libvpx version >= v0.9.7... no *** Fix above errors and then restart with "make -f client.mk build" make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/paludis/www-client-firefox-10.0.1-r1/work/mozilla-release' make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/paludis/www-client-firefox-10.0.1-r1/work/mozilla-release' configure: error: --with-system-libvpx requested but it is not v0.9.7 or later make[2]: *** [configure] Error 1
