Install MP4Tools on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

[Shmu26]

Is there a .deb file or appimage or snap or flatpak or something else?
I am trying to install by source and I don't see a list of dependencies anywhere. I have been installing them one after the other, according to the errors in build, but I am stuck on this one:

MP4Joiner requires the wxSVG library with ffmpeg/libav support.

The full output is:

I have these packages installed:

Maybe you don't need this today. But for everybody with this error:
-Reinstall ffmpeg
-Reinstall libwsvg and related
-Install wxSVG from https://wxsvg.sourceforge.net/ and build it with
./autogen.sh,
./configure --enable-libav
make
sudo make install

If you installed it previously, open a terminal and type cd wxsvg (for example) and type: make clean, sudo make clean. Then rebuild wxSVG. You'll need Pango and Cairo, Pangocairo and related.

• Download mp4tools 3.8
• cd mp4tools
• ./autogen.sh
  -./configure --with-wx-config=/usr/bin/wx-config
  -make
  -sudo make install.

That worked for me after hours with errors. I hope it helps.

You also need to install gpac, sudo apt install gpac
