Thanks.


Well, I've switched to a different git branch, and it works.

The build system isn't perfect, though. you have to
cd ficl
make
before you do a top-level make, otherwise it complains of
 *** No rule to make target `../ficl/libficl.a', needed by `cinelerra'.
Stop.

I'm completely new to the GNUish way of doing builds (keen observers
will notice that I'm completely new to a lot of things ;) ). There's so
much to these things as to beggar belief. The basic problem is that in
the cinelerra directory, I've told it it's got a dependency
on ../ficl/libficl.a , but it doesn't call the makefile in the ficl
directory to make it. Not sure what to do about that one. You got the
configure.in, Makefile.am that makes Makefile.in that makes Makefile -my
brain hurts - whereas I just created a Makefile in the ficl dir, which
probably isn't helping.

One problem with C++ is that I find myself with the repeated desire to
want to "unroll" the classes. It's like C++'s answer to monads. Which I
also don't understand.
