Problems installing VLC from Source Code

[malp]

Hi,
I try to install VLC on my notebook. I configured it like this:
./configure --enable-FEATURE=yes --enable-livedotcom --enable-dvdread --enable-cddax --enable-faad --enable-flac --enable-theora --enable-aa --enable-arts --enable-galaktos --enable-goom --with-ffmpeg-tree=/home/mazlum/Data/Programme/VLC/ffmpeg/
But after I typed make it printed this strange error message:
preferences.cpp:339: error: cannot convert `const char*' to `const wxChar*' for
argument `5' to `void wxAssert(int, const wxChar*, int, const wxChar*, const
wxChar*)'

It seems that he can't compile wxwindows. How can I fix this problem?

[xtophe]

Which version of wxwidgets do you have ?

[Guest]

version 2.6.1. Or should I install the version which is on the vlc-site

[xtophe]

No that should be fine. I personaly use 2.6.1 for my win build and i know people which use it for linux.

Are you compiling the SVN or the 0.8.2 release ?
In the laater, could you try the svn or a snapshot to see if it has already been fixed. http://download.videolan.org/pub/vlc/snapshots/

[malp]

What is SVN and which download file should I chose?

[xtophe]

SVN stands dor Subversion and is a successor of CVS.
It's the way we use to work at several people on the sources. See http://developers.videolan.org/svn.html.

If you tried a snapshot you should take the latest.

Ok, but the error message still appears.
