compiling smpeg on slackware

Has anyone compiled smpeg on slackware (9.1) successfully? I am getting errors while linking plaympeg (undefined reference to operator ...) with libmpeg.so. smpeg version 0.4.4 (seems to be the latest, however quite old, 2001).

i don't know if this will help but i got it compiled on slackware 9.0 - make sure u have SDL installed first - then compile smpeg - i am trying to get sdl-mixer installed after i installed smpeg cause sdl-mixer needs SDL and smpeg to be installed - and do u use a proggy called checkinstall ???

anyone else have suggestions ???

Solution for the smpeg 0.4.4 compile problem on Mandrake 10.0

I ran across the same problem while compiling on Mandrake 10.0.

The Beyond Linux From Scratch mailing list had the answer here: http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermai...ch/038115.html

but that could be a little confusing. Here's the simpler version:

1. Open libsmpeg.la (I did it after make failed so I'd suggest running ./configure first. I don't know if it's necessary)
2. Find this:

Code:

# Libraries that this one depends upon.

dependency_libs=' -L/usr/local/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -lSDL -lpthread -lm -lSDL -lpthread -lm'

3. Add -lstdc++ to the list so that it looks like this

Code:

# Libraries that this one depends upon.

dependency_libs=' -L/usr/local/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -lSDL -lpthread -lm -lSDL -lpthread -lm -lstdc++'

Now it will compile.
