I've been struggling with Avidemux and SpiderMonkey installation.
I couldn't find decent tutorial (not on Avidemux Wiki or elsewhere), and after successful installation, I decided to write a tutorial that would be helpful to LFS (and other) users.
I tried to add the tutorial to BLFS Wiki, but I don't have "WIKI_CREATE" permission.
I would appreciate if someone uploads it to BLFS Wiki.
Here's tutorial:

This page explains how to install Avidemux. Avidemux requires SpiderMonkey scripting engine, so it will be installed first.

Installing SpiderMonkey
In order to install SpiderMonkey, Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR) API needs to be instaled first.
Installing nspr
Download nspr form here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/nspr/releases/. After unpacking the source, do the following:
Code:
cd mozilla/nsprpub
./configure --with-pthreads
make
rm -Rf dist/bin
tar -czhf nspr-bin.tar.gz -C dist/ .
Make yourself superuser, and install nspr by doing the following:
Code:
tar -C /usr/local/ -xzf nspr-bin.tar.gz
ldconfig
Installing js
Download js from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/js/. Unpack it, cd into src directory and edit Makefile.ref file, so that it can find nspr.
Section
Code:
ifdef JS_THREADSAFE
DEFINES += -DJS_THREADSAFE
INCLUDES += -I../../dist/$(OBJDIR)/include
ifdef USE_MSVC
OTHER_LIBS += ../../dist/$(OBJDIR)/lib/libnspr${NSPR_LIBSUFFIX}.lib
else
OTHER_LIBS += -L../../dist/$(OBJDIR)/lib -lnspr${NSPR_LIBSUFFIX}
endif
endif
should be replaced with
Code:
ifdef JS_THREADSAFE
DEFINES += -DJS_THREADSAFE
INCLUDES += -I/usr/local/include/nspr
ifdef USE_MSVC
OTHER_LIBS += ../../dist/$(OBJDIR)/lib/libnspr${NSPR_LIBSUFFIX}.lib
else
OTHER_LIBS += -L/usr/local/lib -lnspr4
endif
endif
Next, compile js:
Code:
export JS_THREADSAFE=1
make -f Makefile.ref BUILD_OPT=1
Make yourself superuser, and install js:
Code:
mkdir /usr/local/include/js
cp *.h /usr/local/include/js
cd Linux_All_OPT.OBJ/
cp *.h /usr/local/include/js
cp js jscpucfg /usr/local/bin/
cp libjs.so libjs.a /usr/local/lib/
ldconfig
Now, you can proceed with installing Avidemux.
Installing Avidemux
Download latest Avidemux source code from
http://www.avidemux.org.
Install it by typing:
Code:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-jsapi-include=/usr/local/include/js
make
su
make install
Comments
This was tested with nspr 4.6.5, js 1.6 and Avidemux 2.3.
If you're using FreeType-2.1.7, you'll need to upgrade to newer version in order to install Avidemux 2.3.
