Error while making VLC in ubuntu

Postby ipmultimedia » 05 Apr 2009 13:40

Hi
I am trying to compile vlc on ubuntu following the guidelines at http://www.jbkempf.com/blog/post/2008/0 ... -Hardy-804
But I get some errors during making vlc that I can't understand them.

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXxf86dga collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[5]: *** [libggi_plugin.la] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/multimedia/vlc/build/modules/video_output' make[4]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/multimedia/vlc/build/modules/video_output' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/multimedia/vlc/build/modules/video_output' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/multimedia/vlc/build/modules' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/multimedia/vlc/build' make: *** [all] Error 2
Any help would be appreciated.

I also faced the same problem in ubuntu.

installing libxxf86dga-dev and libxxf86vm-dev packages solved the problem.

sudo apt-get install libxxf86vm-dev libxxf86dga-dev
