By stopping the script here jhalfs thinks it has installed libvpx and that this dependency is satisfied. Hopefully it is now seeing the libvpx that I have built from the book.
Now the jhalfs KDE build script has continued to run OK. So I will have to see if any other packages call for libvpx.
Thank you very much for the amount of work you have put into this.

The problem there is you're not building anything, no libraries are produced. If the lib is truly needed, this will be a problem in 1 of 2 ways:
1. You will go to launch some program (of which libvpx is a dependency) which will have a run-time link dependency on libvpx, and the program will fail to start, as the library cannot be found.
2. If the library is loaded dynamically, you'll be using a program at some point and it can just suddenly die, when it goes to dynamically load libvpx.
You could make the same change in libvpx-1.6.1. By not doing the actual build, you won't get this build error.
Hopefully nothing makes use of libvpx, or that component won't really be usable, or functionality will be limited. Now that being said, libvpx isn't an entirely popular library. Outside of Google you don't see it used in industry often. It's a beautiful codec, but industry is what it is, and it's not very popular. Hopefully because of that jhalfs's "dependency" on libvpx is either a very small corner case, or isn't utilized at all.
2 more notes, in case you end up trying further:
1. In the official build instructions, the call is done like this:
Code:
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../libvpx/configure <options>
$ make
The fact that the build dir is at the same level as libvpx dir MAY make a difference....but I doubt it.
2. Here is my vpx_config.h. If the only problem is the config not being generated, then just drop the file in what I believe will be the build dir (is on my system), and make should work. I didn't modify the config, I don't think. If there's more problems, though, it will just error somewhere else..

No problem for helping, man. Whether you try to by-pass this lib, or continue messing with it, best of luck to you!
