[SOLVED] FFMPEG ABS Compile Error

Goffredo · 2012-03-18 23:39:12

Trying to build ffmpeg to enable aac support, gives me this error after modifying the abs PKGBUILD:

ERROR: libpulse-simple not found

Searching in the configure.log I see this:

BEGIN /tmp/ffconf.muZ9nNmZ.c
    1	#include <pulse/simple.h>
    2	long check_pa_simple_new(void) { return (long) pa_simple_new; }
    3	int main(void) { return 0; }
END /tmp/ffconf.muZ9nNmZ.c

/usr/lib/libsndfile.so.1: undefined reference to `vorbis_version_string'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
ERROR: libpulse-simple not found

What could the problem be? All my packages are up to date with the arch repos.

EDIT: formatting

Welcome to the Arch forums. Please remember to use code blocks where appropriate.

Could you please provide a diff to show the precise way you modified the PKGBUILD?

Hi and thanks for the quickest reply ever!

This is the plain diff.

27a28
>     --enable-libvo-aacenc \

As you can see I only added aac support. (Actually copying the library from the windows build here (http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/readme … readme.txt))

EDIT: grammar

Okay, it worked for me. Looking closer at your error message, I see it's complaining about a missing libpulse-simple. On my system, I ran:

pacman -Qoq $(pacman -Qqs pulse | pacman -Qql | grep libpulse-simple) | uniq

and obtained:

libpulse

Therefore, I suggest you install libpulse first, even though it's not explicitly listed as a dependency.

If you can reproduce the problem when not trying to enable libvo-aacenc, this would imply the dependency list in the PKGBUILD is out of date, and a bug should be submitted.

libpulse *is* a dependency of ffmpeg and it's listed in the PKGBUILD.

So it is! Need more coffee, stat!

Goffredo, did you not get a warning about the missing dependency?

w/o all the deps and makedeps in place.

i still don't get it how you guys ended up to libpulse,

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libsndfile.so.1
/usr/lib/libsndfile.so.1 is owned by libsndfile 1.0.25-2

Now recompile this package using abs and retry ffmpeg. If it works, report on our tracker to fix it.

Goffredo · 2012-03-19 07:17:05

Yes, as some of you noticed, libpulse is indeed already installed (otherwise I could not even launch the build as it is required as a dependency). I tried recompiling libsndfile and libvorbis yesterday, but libsndfile fails with the same error as far I can remember. I will try to recompile once I get in uni, and report any problems. Thanks for the help guys.

you should report this issue with libsndfile in our tracker because is a legit bug.

I'm confused. The error reported had something to do with a missing libpulse-simple. I didn't get any errors when I compiled ffmpeg with libvo-aacenc enabled, and I have that file.

Doesn't this mean that there is no bug, instead there was a missing libpulse file?

Goffredo · 2012-03-19 09:41:34

Ok, compiling libsndfile from ABS gives me the same error:

Making all in examples
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/Goffredo/abs/libsndfile/src/libsndfile-1.0.25/examples'
  CC     make_sine.o

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [make_sine] Error 1

make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

Should I report it on the bug tracker?

@/dev/zero: the error compiling ffmpeg was the one you say, but it isn't as simple to solve. As I said, I already have libpulse properly installed from the repos through pacman.

Reported on arch bug tracker. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/29005

EDIT: Reported too soon it seems...I had some miscompiled libraries in usr/local/. Removing all of the contents of /usr/local solved the problem (and I don't even want to think how many more it has generated )

Thanks for the help guys, closing as solved.
