Try to compile vlc 0.9.6 on a opensuse 11.00 server box, getting this error...

checking for HAL... configure: WARNING: libhal >= 0.5.0 was not found. Install libhal-dev ?
checking for DBUS... configure: error: Couldn't find DBus >= 1.0.0, install libdbus-dev ?

Unable to find those libraries for openSuSe 11.0. I compiled /extras/contrib....


Any suggestion

Yes, install Git, install subversion and install the right libraries... You shouldn't use contribs on Linux.

I just follow the instructions.

I will try again

Thx

Do you have instruction how to compile it.

I follow instruction on this link.

You're missing the development headers for libhal and libdbus. Install them from your distro

[aberrio]

I try this that was suggested on another post....


(You can compile VLC without any user interface: use --disable-qt4 --disable-skins2 ...)


Installing libdbus will install the graphical intefvace, I do not need a graphical interface. I tried to follow the link on the developer instruction and get the error while compiling.

How can I compile VLC without graphical interface on opensuse 11.0.

aberrio,

As you seem to have trouble compiling VLC on your own, you can also install the vlc packages from the VideoLAN repository.
If you want to install without any X-Dependencies, you should go for the package vlc-noX and it's dependencies. It's stripped down to not include any X libs.

Should there be an issue with it, please let me know.
