Instead of pointing to the UMN sourceforge mirror, it should just be dl.blah blah. This ensures rotation of mirrors. UMN doesn't function very well, and often doesn't have the necessary files. By using just dl.sourceforge.net, you rotate mirrors, and if one doesn't work, just try building the package again, and you'll get a different mirror that might work.

The other error is more serious.

Header files from src/faad2/common/{mp4ff,mp4av,mp4v2} are not getting included in the distribution, making it impossible to compile other tools that require faad2.
This task depends upon

Adding this as the last line in the build() section fixes it:

install -m0644 common/{mp4ff,mp4av,mp4v2}/*.h $startdir/pkg/usr/include

What program will not compile wihtout these faad headers?

..and just for the record.. mp4ff.h does get installed, look again.
Comment by Sasha (kleptophobiac) - Monday, 11 April 2005, 23:30 GMT
Yes, the main mp4ff.h does get installed, but there are other faad2 headers that don't, that are part of the same directory, like mp4ff_int_types.h.

Yeah, but those headers might have been combined into just mp4ff.h. Either way.. I'm still waiting for you to name one of these "tools" that won't compile due to the absence of these headers.

Mythmusic is the first one that comes to mind.

there is also moreamp.

mp4ff.h includes mp4ff_int_types.h. Therefore mp4ff_int_types.h should be installed with mp4ff.h

BTW, faad2 doesn't build from ABS (new gcc version?).
