ffmpeg-full install with so many problems. Maybe my machine?

theherk · 2014-11-08 00:02:33

I am trying very hard to install ffmpeg-full so that it is compiled with JACK support. I am running into so much trouble that I am starting to think the issues are mine.

When I install this package it fails, missing dependencies libsoxr, vo-aacenc, vo-amrwbenc, and libbs2b. No problem. I'll install them.

libsoxr:
makepkg fails validity check
updpkgsums
makepkg fails /tmp/packerbuild-1000/libsoxr/libsoxr/PKGBUILD: line 21: cd: soxr-0.1.1-Source: No such file or directory
That's true, so I try and extract soxr-0.1.1-Source.tar.xz
tar xf soxr-0.1.1-Source.tar.xz - format not recognized

Same thing for the other 3. Each one fails validity, each fails to build, and each has a tar that can't be extracted.

What gives? I've installed tons from AUR and never had this much trouble until today. Are all these packages really bad?

No problem here, at least with libsoxr.

Please post the full output (in code tags) including the commands you are using.

Sure thing.

Odd, getting one corrupted download is not horribly odd, but if it's repeating then either there is something wrong with the source or with the route to your machine. I can confirm the source is fine. The checksum is accurate and libsoxr built without issue here.

Have you set any custom DLAGENT settings in makepkg.conf?

Can you download and checksum the file manually? Here's my result from doing that:

$ curl -L -o test.tar.xz  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/soxr/soxr-0.1.1-Source.tar.xz

$ sha256sum test.tar.xz
dcc16868d1a157079316f84233afcc2b52dd0bd541dd8439dc25bceb306faac2  test.tar.xz

I see this url is actual a redirect. If you have removed the "-L" flag from curl in makepkg.conf, or are using an alternative downloader that doesn't have an equivalent setting to follow redirects, this would explain this failure and likely many others you say you've been getting.

What the hell?

I got a good copy from this mirror. Do you have a content-inspecting proxy that extracts and repacks tar archives?

$ curl -O http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/soxr/soxr-0.1.1-Source.tar.xz
$ sha256sum soxr-0.1.1-Source.tar.xz 
dcc16868d1a157079316f84233afcc2b52dd0bd541dd8439dc25bceb306faac2  soxr-0.1.1-Source.tar.xz

Ha. Okay, I've solved the riddle... sort of. I don't know why this has not come up sooner or why other packages seem to behave just fine. For months now, I have been using cell carrier / PdaNet / FoxFi tethering for my internet connection. They have a hide tethering option which changes packets somehow. I have not had this affect me adversely until today. I don't know if my cell carrier has changed something or what, but somehow it is altering this file. That doesn't sit well with me.

edit: And the installation is going swimmingly right now. Weird.
