slack13_64

erickFis · 09-15-2009, 08:01 PM

HEllo!

I'm trying to build my own slack13_64 package for ffmpeg using the slackbuild script that I got on slackBuilds.org,

and I found that ffmpeg configure "libx264 not found error" is a pain in the ass =D

I've already build and installed x264, again from a slackbuild script that I got on slackBuilds.org,

and even tried linking manually things from /usr/lib/ to /usr/lib64/,
but yet ffmpeg ./configure refuses to see that libx264.* files.

Code:

erickfis@darkstar:~/downloads/transc/ffmpeg-0.5$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/man --disable-static --enable-shared --enable-gpl --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-swscale --enable-avfilter --enable-avfilter-lavf --enable-pthreads --enable-x11grab --enable-bzlib --enable-libamr-nb --enable-libamr-wb --enable-libdc1394 --enable-libdirac --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-libfaadbin --enable-libgsm --enable-libmp3lame  --enable-libnut --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libschroedinger --enable-libspeex --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-memalign-hack --enable-libxvid --enable-zlib --disable-debug --enable-vdpau
ERROR: libx264 not found
If you think configure made a mistake,...

Any ideas?

EDIT: nvm..I didn't see you wanted 64bit :P

The next section of the error message should tell you the logfiles created that give exact details of the detection failure.

On Slackware64-13.0 all libraries need to be in /usr/lib64. Each program you compile needs to pass the correct options to place them there.

For x264 -
./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \

If you passed the correct ARCH option using the Slackbuilds.org SlackBuild, this will place libx264 in /usr/lib64.

Ffmpeg needs to be compiled with these options, in order to find the libs in /usr/lib64

--libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
--shlibdir=/usr/lib64 \

Take a look at wadsworth's configure that he posted

Hello guys, thanks for helping!

I've tried wadsworth ./configure way, like this:

Code:

 --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --shlibdir=/usr/lib64 --mandir=/usr/man --disable-debug --enable-shared --disable-static --enable-pthreads --enable-libtheora --enable-gpl --enable-postproc --enable-swscale --enable-x11grab --enable-avfilter --enable-avfilter-lavf --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-libxvid --enable-libx264 --enable-libspeex --enable-libschroedinger --disable-vdpau --enable-nonfree --enable-libamr-nb --enable-libamr-wb

but ffmpeg still cannot find libx264.....

wadsworth, could you post the x264 build steps you took?

Alien Bob · 09-16-2009, 08:53 AM

If you used the x264.SlackBuild found at slackbuilds.org - then the library files would have been installed to lib64 directories and you would never have had to attempt to link files from lib to lib64. So I wonder what went wrong on your system.

Alternatively you can try my all-inclusive ffmpeg.SlackBuild at http://slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/ffmpeg/build/ - this script compiles several supporting libraries (x264 being one of those) statically into ffmpeg itself. I use this on my Slackware64 system myself.

Regards, Eric

wadsworth · 09-16-2009, 12:10 PM

I used the scripts from slackbuilds.org,
with ARCH=x86_64 and PKGTYPE=txz defined before calling them.

I found these build queues to be very helpful:
http://www.sbopkg.org/queues/13.0/

Something is very wrong here, maybe start over from square one,
or just try Eric's packages.

BrZ · 09-16-2009, 12:28 PM

You can go for Eric's package and have more time to poke around your problem. Where are the 'libx264.*' files located? Eric and Robby have some nice additions kindly shared.

erickFis · 09-16-2009, 03:07 PM

double post deleted

erickFis · 09-16-2009, 03:12 PM

Alien Bob's script looks really good stuff.

Wads, I'm going to try building x264 again,
and if it goes wrong again,
I'll give a try with Alien Bob's script.

It's a shame that I don't have slack13_64 here at work,
so I'll have to wait until I get home....

Thank you guys!

ok, yesterday I've tried again the slackbuilds scritpts, for both x264 and ffmpeg,
but, so far, ffmpeg can't find libX264.

Then I tried Alien's Bob script, but when it reaches the ffmpeg part, well, guess what:

Code:

gcc -o x264 x264.o matroska.o muxers.o libx264.a -L/usr/lib64 -fPIC -lm -lpthread -Wl,-Bsymbolic -s

install -m 644 libx264.a /tmp/build/tmp-ffmpeg/ffmpegdeps/usr/lib

install x264 /tmp/build/tmp-ffmpeg/ffmpegdeps/usr/bin                                                                                     
ranlib /tmp/build/tmp-ffmpeg/ffmpegdeps/usr/lib/libx264.a

ERROR: libx264 not found

Now I'll give a look at conf.errors. Didn't do it yet because I was soooo tired.

Any ideas please tell me.

pokipoki08 · 09-17-2009, 09:55 AM

Before building x264, did you install yasm from the iso, under extras directory?

erickFis · 09-17-2009, 03:16 PM

nope.

Once I noticed x264 would ask for yasm I downloaded, compiled and installed it. Didn't knew it was on /extras. I'll give it a try.

erickFis · 09-18-2009, 04:12 PM

ok, now I've tried with yasm from the /extras,
but still no success....

The same problem occurs when I try to compile pango:
configure says that it cannot find glibmm,
but I'd just installed glibmm before, all using slackbuilds scripts...
