armv5te-softfloat-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lavformat

[yuntianruoren]

Hi, everyone
My VLC's problem has not been resolved.

Mission: cross compile VLC to CDK
VLC version: 1.1.4

I configured this way:

Code: Select all

./configure --host=armv5te-float-linux --target=armv5te-float-linux --build=arm --disable-dbus --disable-dbus-control --disable-alsa --enable-avcodec --disable-lua --enable-mad --disable-dvdread --disable-freetype --disable-dvbpsi --disable-vcd --enable-vorbis --enable-sout --disable-directx --disable-waveout --disable-macosx --enable-sdl --disable-ogg --disable-mkv --disable-a52 --enable-libmpeg2 --disable-fb --disable-xvideo --disable-glx --disable-qt4 --disable-skins2 --disable-nls --disable-mozilla --disable-libgcrypt --disable-remoteosd --prefix=/home/yuntianruoren/VLC --with-mad=/home/yuntianruoren/mad-0.14.2b/ --with-mad-tree=/home/yuntianruoren/mad-0.14.2b/libmad/ --disable-alsa LDFLAG=-L/home/yuntianruoren/ffmpeg/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/home/yuntianruoren/ffmpeg/include

and occurred this error:

Hope your help~
Thanks!

Did you compile FFmpeg?

[yuntianruoren]

Yes, I have compiled it.
But it still could not find lavformat.
Finally, I solved this problem by modifying makefile.

Nevertheless, I still did not successfully compile VLC.
Here is error:

Code: Select all

I cann't find libraw1394's folder in VLC-1.1.4.
Do I download the libraw1394 and compile it?
Thanks!

Hi yuntianruoren,

I've found that:
% cd extras/contrib;
% ./bootstrap;
% make;

Does an excellent job of tracking down dependencies. Libraw1394-1.2.0.tar.gz should get grabbed for you automatically under ./extras/contrib/build-src. Then you can choose to build independently or let the contrib make handle it. I personally haven't had much luck with the contrib make, but it's probably because I'm using an older kernel in RHEL 5.5.

You mention that you were able to modify the makefile to fix the lavformat issue? I'm running into the same problem with a 1.2.0-git.

Did you simply remote -lavformat from the AVFORMAT_LIBS= line (around 190) in the Makefile?

Thanks.
