[Kma-anyg] Error's during compilation (using Fedora Core 2)

[Tjeerd-menno D. <pos...@hn...>]

I've tried compiling the CVS version of KMA-0.4 today.

But in doing so I've encountered a few problems.

 

First of all: after getting the latest CVS version I ran ./autogen.sh. But
that produced an error.

Something like "can't find required file /extra/Makefile.in"

Personally I did think it was quite odd. Normally there are no
source/headers files in subdirectory extra. (at least not in any older
versions I've used)

But this time there were. (bindiff.c & mpeg-packets.c) So I've decided to
"strip" the requirement from the files which "caused" the requirement.  

 

I've altered the last line from configure.in:

from "AC_OUTPUT(Makefile src/Makefile modules/Makefile extra/Makefile)"  to
"AC_OUTPUT(Makefile src/Makefile modules/Makefile)"

 

And I've altered the last line from Makefile.am:

From "SUBDIRS = src modules extra" to "SUBDIRS = src modules"

 

Those alterations did solve my autogen problem. So after that I configured
(./configure -prefix=/usr/local/kma) & compiled everything (make). And after
that  

I installed everything (make install).

 

Everything seemed to work just fine. But When I tried to start KMA for the
first time I discovered another problem.

All the libraries had 0.1.0 extensions instead of .so. KMA expected .so
files so it could not load any of the modules. ("ERROR Loading Module:
yadayada")

 

That problem I solved by renaming all the 0.1.0 files to .so

 

After all the mentioned steps KMA seems to work fine (read: no problems
discovered so far) But I did not use all of the modules. I did not have
installed

Libcdio, libvcdinfo, libdvdcss & libdvdread. All the things I do use work
just fine (localfilemodule for XviD/DivX & MPG video only)

 

 

So. My question is: what caused this?

A>    A bug in the current CVS version of KMA 0.4

B>    Something which has something to do with the linux distro I'm using
(Fedora Core 2)

C>    My own stupid thinking

D>    All of the above

E>    Something else (explain)
