DetailsBoth the x264-svn and x264 pacakges do not generate a shared library, which can be enabled by --enable-shared and is required by applications such as mplayer and cinerella for proper H264 support, while adding this option it would be advisable to add --enable-pic to the configure agruments as well, so that the library is built as PIC code for architectures like AMD64.
I also wish to inform the developers of Arch of how redundent having the x264 package and the x264-svn package is, considering both are essentially building svn snapshots, I think one should be removed in favour of the other. |
