I'm trying to compile the mplayer2 encoder branch statically (because I am slightly modifying the libav libraries).
So I run
Code:
configure --enable-static
It always ends with this error:
Code:
Checking for Libav (libavutil > 51.21.0:libavcodec > 53.34.0:libavformat > 53.20.0:libswscale >= 2.0.0:libpostproc >= 52.0.0) ...
./configure: 6012: ./configure: pkg-config --static: not found
The relevant lines leading up to line 6012 are:
Code:
all_libav_libs="libavutil > 51.21.0:libavcodec > 53.34.0:libavformat > 53.20.0:libswscale >= 2.0.0:libpostproc >= 52.0.0"
echocheck "Libav ($all_libav_libs)"
if $_pkg_config --exists --print-errors $all_libav_libs ; then
IFS=":" # shell should not be used for programming
if $_pkg_config --exists --print-errors $all_libav_libs ; then
inc_ffmpeg=$($_pkg_config --cflags $all_libav_libs)
_ld_tmp=$($_pkg_config --libs $all_libav_libs)
extra_ldflags="$extra_ldflags $_ld_tmp"
extra_cflags="$extra_cflags $inc_ffmpeg"
unset IFS
else
die "Unable to find development files for some of the required Libav libraries above. Aborting."
fi
with 6012 being the first if statement.
I dumped out the $_pkg_config which is "pkg-config --static". There are no special characters within the string. But for some reason it is as if sh is treating "pkg-config --static" as the name of a binary.
I tried putting various parenthesis around the command, but with no avail:
Code:
if [ $($_pkg_config --exists --print-errors $all_libav_libs) ] ; then
What am I missing here?
