i keep getting c can not create executable while installing mad play in fedora

John VV · 04-29-2010, 09:24 PM

probably because of the gcc output

Code:

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk

thanks for quick reply i want to compile vlc source code in intel desktop pc and then i can move to cross compilation targetboard.

i am new to linux , please what are the corrections i have to do in following command

Code:

  configure:2383: gcc -I /home/narendra/lib/libmad-0.15.1b/include/ -L /home/narendra/lib/libid3tag-0.15.1b/lib/ conftest.c >&5
> cc1: error: /home/narendra/lib/libmad-0.15.1b/include/: Permission denied

John VV · 04-30-2010, 02:08 AM

"2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686
that is the first problem
Fedora 10 is no longer supported ,Please install a supported version

and vlc will build in fedora
most of the dependencies are there
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
http://wiki.videolan.org/Developers_Corner
http://wiki.videolan.org/GetTheSource

also a cross with WHAT mac or windows ( if windows just install the windows version ) or some other linux distro ????? or or intel and arm cpu's ???
http://wiki.videolan.org/ARM-XCompile
also WHY do you need to try to build " madplay " it is old and has not been worked on in a long time
see my post #7

naren4055 · 04-30-2010, 02:16 AM

knudfl said that

You will have to cross compile all libraries that will
be used by vlc. "gcc" is not to be used at all.
i am new to linux can tell me how to cross compile all libraries that will
be used by vlc.

naren4055 · 04-30-2010, 02:38 AM

John VV has given me some sites in that one is the complete source pakages are given for cross compilation .can i follow those steps or will i do extra steps pls give me complete procedure how to compile vlc source code in intel pc

John VV · 04-30-2010, 02:46 AM

what are you cross compiling for ??
what arch ??

What dose vlc need to run on that you can not build in on that system ?

naren4055 · 04-30-2010, 03:03 AM

i have downloaded following vlc source package and following files
* binutils-2.11.2.tar.gz
* linux-2.4.19.tar.bz2
* patch-2.4.19-rmk4.bz2
* gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz
* gcc-2.95.3.diff.bz2
* gcc-2.95.3.diffbis.bz2 - [File hard to find, Please post link to file]
* gcc-2.95.3.diff2
* glibc-2.2.5.tar.gz
* glibc-linuxthreads-2.2.5.tar.gz
* SDL-1.2.5.tar.gz
* glib-1.2.10.tar.gz
* ffmpeg.tar.gz
* mad-0.14.2b.tar.gz
* flac-1.1.0.tar.gz
* libdvbpsi-0.1.2.tar.gz
* a52dec-0.7.4.tar.gz
in above files what i need to install in fedora 10version which has libgcc-4.3.2-7.i386
gcc-4.3.2-7.i386
gcc-gfortran-4.3.2-7.i386
gcc-c++-4.3.2-7.i386 ,
and tell me what files are not needed to compile .

John VV · 04-30-2010, 03:47 AM

ALL OF THOSE FILES ARE IN THE FEDORA REPOS use yum to install them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Code:

yum groupinstall " Development Tools"

but install fedora 12 first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and read

Code:

man yum

and answer my question in the above pose
WHAT architectures do you need to cross compile for!!!!

knudfl · 04-30-2010, 03:51 AM

No vlc ?
Did you really download all those "ten" year old files ?
Or is it just a copy of this text :
http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=73126

Most of the files can not even be compiled on Fedora 10..11..12.
..

naren4055 · 04-30-2010, 04:41 AM

these are my architecture details which i need to cross compile below link give u entire architecture details

http://www.friendlyarm.net/products/mini2440

and one more thing i have already did that with

Code:

yum groupinstall " Development Tools"

knudfl · 04-30-2010, 05:41 AM

An answer to ""How do I learn to cross compile ?"" can be this :
Start building LFS, 'Linux From Scratch' a couple of times,
preferable using the LFS live cd. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/

When you have seen, how everything works, and is connected together,
then move on to CLFS, 'Cross Linux From Scratch', where an example of
a different architecture is used.

naren4055 · 04-30-2010, 10:58 AM

thank u sir
suppose i was installed fedora 12 version in intel pc, then will i directly compile vlc source code with no need of cross compilation porecudere

knudfl · 04-30-2010, 04:51 PM

Compiling vlc-1.0.6 for x86 on Fedora 10..11..12 :

Code:

# yum install libXxf86vm-devel vcdimager-devel \
zlib-devel fontconfig-devel alsa-lib-devel libgcrypt-devel libdca-devel \  
SDL_image-devel fribidi-devel zvbi-devel freetype-devel libX11-devel \ 
taglib-devel libnotify-devel libogg-devel libvorbis-devel libmpeg2-devel \  
libproxy-devel live555-devel libmpcdec-devel libdvdnav-devel libcddb-devel \
libcdio-devel libdvdread-devel ffmpeg-devel libmad-devel libdvbpsi-devel \
lua-devel libtar-devel liba52-devel mesa-libGL-devel mesa-libGLU-devel \
speex-devel schroedinger-devel fluidsynth-devel libxml2-devel avahi-devel \
pulseaudio-libs-devel libpng10-devel libmtp-devel minizip-devel qt-devel \ 
gnutls-devel xcb-util-devel xorg-x11-proto-devel libtiff-devel

( 'vlc' will not compile with x264-devel on Fedora 10.)
cd vlc-1.0.6/ && ./configure && make && ./bin/vlc-static : "vlc" starts !

No files compiled for x86 are usable for 'arm'. Must be cross compiled.
Or compiled on an arm machine.

A 'vlc' for arm is here http://packages.debian.org/etch/vlc ( vlc 0.8.6 )
Version 1.0.5, (glibc 2.8), armel: http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/vlc
The "35" dependencies are marked with red dots.
