Hello list, I am trying to have some fun with DVD encoding and it seems like I am having fun with everything else but DVD's.
I was working from an article in Linux Journal, Dec 2003. I downloaded the mjpegtools and built/installed. Received "malloc faliure" from mpeg2enc. Searching the archive list turned up a thread in regard to a bug in glibc 2.2.5. That I believe I am running here on Slackware 8.1 distro. Recommendation was to download the CVS version and so I did that and it failed to build. The thread went on to discuss updating autoconf, automake, and libtool. So I have also done that as well. But it still reports the same error below. ./configure: line 1440: syntax error near unexpected token `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(mjpegtools,' ./configure: line 1440: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(mjpegtools, $MJPEG_VERSION)' There are also numerous warnings and other errors reported from automake prior to this. But it dosen't stop the process. I can post all of the output but it is probably about a hundred lines. But the error above stops the configuration part. The beginning of the output starts with the following, bash-2.05a# ./autogen.sh **Warning**: I am going to run `configure' with no arguments. If you wish to pass any to it, please specify them on the `./autogen.sh' command line. processing . Running libtoolize... You should add the contents of `/usr/local/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'. Running aclocal ... aclocal: configure.in: 174: macro `AM_PATH_GLIB' not found in library aclocal: configure.in: 368: macro `AM_PATH_GTK' not found in library aclocal: configure.in: 380: macro `AM_PATH_SDL' not found in library I was not able to locate the file aclocal.m4 in the top directory, so I copied the libtool.m4 there instead, and it removed that beginning message, but the missing macro messages remained. Perhaps someone can help identify what it is that I may still be missing to build properly.
