compile VLC 1.1.11 on puppy528

[moijdikssekool]

hello
i'm trying to compile VLC1.1.11, there are some check and then it doesn't succeed, it says my glibc needs to be updated and "Buggy GNU/libc (version 2.5 - 2.7) present. VLC would crash; there is no viable work-around for this". I've tried with VLC1.0.0, i have the same problem. I use toutou linux (puppy, linux loaded in ram). There is a package VLC1.0.0 for this linux and it works fine, i can look movies, so the problem is not incompatibility
What do you think i need to do?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

Disable Native Language Support in VLC (configure --disable-nls) or update to a newer GNU/libc.

[moijdikssekool]

the command ./configure --disable-nls did the same result. I imagine i have to compile the kernel if i upgrade the glibc, no? Toutou is the french version of puppy linux whose glibc version is 2.11.1 (toutou: 2.6.1),is that enough?

[moijdikssekool]

ok, i've loaded a better distro and the compilation go further, there are some warnings because of wrong checks, some library lack (if some lacks of library don't stop compilation, is it necesseray to look for the .so?, some do and i have to do ./configure --disable-lua --disable-avcodec --disable-postproc, i will search the .so later), but now, i have

checking for XCB... yes
checking for XCB_SHM... no
configure: error: Package requirements (xcb-shm) were not met:

No package 'xcb-shm' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XCB_SHM_CFLAGS
and XCB_SHM_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

i extract xcb-shm from http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... &start=105 to /usr/ilb but the problem is still there. Is there something special to do with this libs?

[Sébastien Escudier]

the lib must be installed, not just extracted, or you have to set some variables manualy

[moijdikssekool]

i've found the package libxcb-shm0-dev_1.7-3_i386.deb in which there is libxcb-shm.so. The installation seems to work but the problem is still there. What did you hear with 'set some variables manually'?

[Sébastien Escudier]

it's written in the error message.

[moijdikssekool]

ok there was solething wrong in xcb-shm.pc
i had to install-xcb xv, install xcb-util-keysyms-0.3.8.tar.gz and libvlc5, libvlccore4
during the checking configuration, there was some warnings because of a lack of some libraries. Is it useless to look for these libraries?
now i launch

sh-4.1# vlc --plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/vlc
VLC media player 1.1.11 The Luggage (revision exported)
Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_ADDRESS")
Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_BUS_TYPE")
[0x806acd4] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
Remote control interface initialized. Type `help' for help.

and... nothing, the window of VLC doesn't appear. I have to do ctrl+C to have my bash back: the system or VLC doesn't crash, the window of VLC just doesn't appear

[moijdikssekool]

if i try to open an image or a movie, it says it needs some decoder (mpv4, mjpg... Decoders and codec are not presents in the source? i don't find anything interesting, VLC is known not to need codec...

[Sébastien Escudier]

for the codecs, you need to compile vlc with ffmpeg
if you want an interface, then enable qt when you ./configure

[moijdikssekool]

i have taken source of ffmpeg from the first link 'snapshot' of http://ffmpeg.org/download.html (why is it called 'snapshot'?)
thx to http://wiki.videolan.org/Configure, i have

sh-4.1# ./configure --disable-lua --disable-avcodec --disable-postproc --disable-skins2 --enable-qt4 --enable-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-tree=/tmp/ffmpeg-HEAD-c41bf90
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-ffmpeg, --with-ffmpeg-tree

(i have installed ffmpeg, was it usefull? VLC needs only sources as i could understand)
What is the enable/disable configuration of ./configure used for the original VLC? the one we can read on this page of wiki?

[Sébastien Escudier]

ffmpeg is enabled by default, but configure must find it.
The path of ffmpeg must be set with pkgconfig. If ffmpeg is not installed in a standard place, add the pkgconfig place with PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable

[moijdikssekool]

here is no ffmpeg.pc in /usr/lib/pkgconfig, so i copy the .pc file i find in the ffmpeg source directory: they have the same name of library in /usrlib: avcodec, avutil, swscale...
i have installed qt4 (qt4-dev-tools_4.7.3-7_i386.deb) and postproc (51) but configure doesn't find them. In fact i have to find the source of qt4 and postproc, isn't it? in the ffmpeg source, there is some source of postproc, but how to make it linked to ./configure? the --with-postproc=path option doesn't exist. No --with-qt4=path either....
that was for ./configure. For make, there are some errors from avio.c. Apperently, it's due to ffmpeg, i need to link to its avio
Anyway, this is a story of link. How to do?

[Sébastien Escudier]

there is no qt4-path or ffmpeg-path option, because pkgconfig is used instead.
if configure does not find them, then it is not installed correctly, or you did not set PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable as I told you before

[moijdikssekool]

ok, i have the interface (qt4) and i configure with

./configure --disable-lua --enable-avcodec --disable-postproc --enable-qt4 --disable-skins2 --enable-run-as-root

before i have taped

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.4.3/lib/pkgconfig

i launch with

vlc --plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/vlc /mnt/sdc1/shadock3.jpg

as i could understand, the ffmpeg is set with the option ' --enable-avcodec'
but the problem is still there, vlc can't find the modules mjpeg, mp4v

ls /usr/local/lib/vlc/plugins:

3dnow audio_output meta_engine packetizer stream_out
access codec misc plugins-04041e-68.dat video_chroma
access_output control mmx services_discovery video_filter

[moijdikssekool]

so i have

sh-4.1# vlc --plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/vlc --list |grep ffmpeg
VLC media player 1.1.11 The Luggage (revision exported)

and

sh-4.1# ffmpeg -codecs |grep g4

ffmpeg: relocation error: ffmpeg: symbol postproc_configuration, version LIBPOSTPROC_51 not defined in file libpostproc.so.51 with link time reference

my linux is not ubuntu but the ffmpeg i have compiled has been written for ubuntu. So i can imagine some links are broken. What to do about this and postproc?

[moijdikssekool]

i reconfigure ffmpeg with --enable-gpl --enable-postproc and vlc with --enable-postproc but the blue line in the last post is still there
the codec problem is still there too, i'm still searching...

--> ffmpeg:

./configure --disable-yasm --enable-gpl --enable-postproc

--> vlc

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.4.3/lib/pkgconfig
./configure --disable-lua --enable-avcodec --enable-postproc --enable-qt4 --disable-skins2 --enable-run-as-root

configurations, compilations and installations are good, except some warnings. The usual interface of vlc appears with

vlc --plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/vlc /mnt/sdc1/shadock3.jpg

but no image appears:

qt4 interface error: Unable to load extensions module
[0x82be774] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `MJPG'. VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.

[Sébastien Escudier]

what does vlc ./configure tells you about ffmpeg (or avcodec)

[moijdikssekool]

i found vlc1.1.10 for my distro, but i propose to continue this topic for posterity
So,

./configure --disable-lua --enable-avcodec --enable-postproc --enable-qt4 --disable-skins2 --enable-run-as-root

[moijdikssekool]

ok, i have the image now, i dl some lib dev deb and reconfigure ffmpeg with --enable-swscale
i have no sound neither acceleration, but it seems to go in a better way, i will find the solution
if it works, i will do a tuto
i have still some problems with the postproc option. What does it work for?

[moijdikssekool]

i have found the sound problem, it's due to my distro
so i try to re-do what i have done to have the vlc interface running an avi mp4v movie and... i haven't succeeded, vlc doesn't find the mpv4 codec
So here is what i've done:
i re-load my distro, extract sources of vlc-1.1.11.tar.bz2, ffmpeg-HEAD-6f8b1fc.tar.gz to my docs and qt4-x11_4.4.3.orig.tar.gz
i install the packages
libavcodec-dev_0.svn20080206-18+lenny3_i386.deb
libavformat-dev_0.svn20080206-18+lenny3_i386.deb

libva-x11-1_1.0.12-2_i386.deb
libvlc5_1.1.11-2+b2_i386.deb
libvlccore4_1.1.11-1~getdeb1_i386.deb
(tips: i move /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/xcb-shm.pc to /usr/lib/pkgconfig, copy libxcb-shm.so.0.0.0 from the link in a previous message, and rename the link libva-x11.so.1 in libva-x11.so)
i compile:
qt4 (in fact i copy with cp -R the version i have compiled during the previous try of vlc compilation) with ./configure (as i could remember)
ffmpeg with ./configure --disable-yasm --enable-gpl --enable-postproc --enable-swscale
vlc with export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.4.3/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --disable-lua --enable-avcodec --disable-postproc --enable-qt4 --disable-skins2 --enable-run-as-root --enable-alsa

As i can remember, i haven't done anything more, so i go back to a previous message:
the wrong checks of vlc configure follow, which one is related to the mp4v codec?

if i look my previous test, i had:

quote]sh-4.1# vlc --plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/vlc --list |grep ffmpeg
VLC media player 1.1.10 The Luggage (revision exported)

i don't remember how i succeded to link ffmpeg to vlc, i have done something manually but what? any clue?
ffmpeg seems to be now better compiled. ffmpeg returns now (at the end)

libavutil 50.15. 1 / 50.15. 1
libavcodec 52.72. 2 / 52.72. 2
libavformat 52.64. 2 / 52.64. 2
libavdevice 52. 2. 0 / 52. 2. 0
libavfilter 1.19. 0 / 1.19. 0
libswscale 0.11. 0 / 0.11. 0
libpostproc 51. 2. 0 / 51. 2. 0
Hyper fast Audio and Video encoder

before, it returned

ffmpeg: relocation error: ffmpeg: symbol postproc_configuration, version LIBPOSTPROC_51 not defined in file libpostproc.so.51 with link time reference

You deactivate of options, why?

i don't what is an option for vlc. I compile till i have no errors. If i have an error, i gg it and if i don't find it, i come here. The mp4v error is at launch and i'd like to know why, VLC don't say how to solve it. What options are you talking about?
now i understand why my previous tests worked: before my compilation of vlc1.1.11 source, i installed a vlc1.1.10 released for my distro and it didn't worked till i compile vlc1.1.11 because the 1.1.10 worked with a bad (too old i think) xcb-shm, replaced by a good xcb-shm compiled when i compiled ffmpeg using the xcb-shm dev deb pakage needed by vlc. I understood that with some tests
Now i understood something else. I need a fresh vlc because vlcj needs it but it needs especially a fresh distro: ths lib.so.6 of my distro is too old (libc-2.11, it works with libc-2.13, i tried it on Ubuntu but Ubuntu is so slow on a key... ); So it needs to compile glibc and ok, i stop this mess. I change the distro
