I have a problem with the compilation of VLC-0.8.6a on Debian etch.

I downloaded the vlc-0.8.6a.tar.gz
$tar -xvzf vlc-0.8.6.a.tar.gz
$cd extras/contrib
$./bootsrtap
And after make
The result is:

Code: Select all

Hi,

From the error in your logfile:

Code: Select all

./bootstrap: line 4: aclocal: command not found

Did you install the automake packages?

With automake1.9 it is better.

But after I get an other problem:

I tried to modify the configure file in ./src/ffmpeg but the same error still appeared.

May be you need first to install lame (containing libmp3lame) and then recompile ffmpeg.

--enable-libmp3lame for recents ffmpegs.
