Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

I am trying to build mplayer nogui-svn. But when it is checking for everything in ./configure, it segfaults while checking for PNG, JPEG, GIf and Freetype.

Checking for PNG support ... ./configure: line 81: 10087 Segmentation fault      "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
no (mismatch of library and header versions)
Checking for JPEG support ... ./configure: line 81: 10096 Segmentation fault      "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
no 
Checking for GIF support ... ./configure: line 81: 10105 Segmentation fault      "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
./configure: line 81: 10113 Segmentation fault      "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
no 
Checking for freetype >= 2.0.9 ... ./configure: line 81: 10454 Segmentation fault      "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
no

I have tried reïnstalling freetype2, but it doesn't work, and without freetype I have no OSD.

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

I have the same problem and fixed it with a dirty hack:

1. Add "patch -p1 < ../no_segfault_configure.diff" at the appropriate postition (e.g. just before running ./configure) in the PKGBUILD
2. Add said patch to the sources array.

With no_segfault_configure.diff looking like this:

--- a/configure.old     2008-11-15 23:27:59.000000000 +0100
+++ b/configure 2008-11-15 23:28:26.000000000 +0100
@@ -79,7 +79,7 @@
 }

 tmp_run() {
-  "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
+  :
 }

 # Display error message, flushes tempfile, exit

And Finaly, add it's md5sum to the PKGBUILD. It works afterwards, but the mplayer build log is not complete (not a real problem if it works).

very strange issue... but your patch fixed it

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

This dirty hack should keep the problem away until it has been fixed.

This problem was solved upstream a while ago. Try without the patch if you haven't already.

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

So it segfaults as soon as it gets to "Creating config.h"? Or is it simply not building?

By the way, change the --disable-runtime-cpudetection to --enable-runtime-cpudetection.

--EDIT--

Please post the PKGBUILD that you're using here.

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

No, it's building but without freetype, jpeg, png and gif support. Because of that OSD and SSA/ASS subtitles doesn't work.

The configire script does not produce any error when I manually run it with ./configure, but segfaults as soon as it tries to detect freetype when run by makepkg.

useing makepkg:

Checking for freetype >= 2.0.9 ... ./configure: line 94: 29982 Segmentation fault      "$TMPEXE" >> "$TMPLOG" 2>&1
no 
Checking for fontconfig ... no (freetype support needed)
Checking for SSA/ASS support ... no (FreeType support needed)

./configure manually:

Checking for freetype >= 2.0.9 ... yes 
Checking for fontconfig ... yes 
Checking for SSA/ASS support ... yes

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

Damn. I can't see what's happening. I just did this right now and I got a successful build. But, my Mplayer build is very different than the one that you're using in that it's an almost pure FFmpeg back end:

Checking for PNG support ... yes 
Checking for MNG support ... yes 
Checking for JPEG support ... yes 
Checking for PNM support ... yes 
Checking for GIF support ... yes
...snip... 
Checking for freetype >= 2.0.9 ... yes 
Checking for fontconfig ... yes 
Checking for SSA/ASS support ... yes

When you start your builds, do you still have the mplayer-build directory? I mean, are you starting with a clean build each time?

yes, I think ...in PKGBUILD there is "rm -rf ../$_svnmod-build" at the end. But I tried manually removed src/mplayer-build before building also.

Hopefully someone that knows what to do will jump in. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

Same problem here. But I've found a workaround: in the PKGBUILD, replace "--enable-gl" by "--disable-gl" (it's somehow related to libGL, see bug #12766 for details).

The good news is that the gl driver is far inferior to either xv or xvmc if you have a nVidia card.

Re: Mplayer segfaults during ./configure

Same here

Running makepkg as root solves the problem for me.
