Summary: configure and build problems

Initial Comment:
The configure script forgets to test about the existence of the xmms 
headers file (libxmms1-devel on mdk 9). Then the compilation stops 
complaining about missing .h files. We install the package and the 
compilation continues but if stops on the linking stage complaining 
about 
 
libtool: only absolute paths are accepted 
 
However, after deleting the volnomr dir (make clean was not enough) 
and unpacking the tarball again, now that libxmms1-devel is installed 
everything works. 
 
So, regardless from where the problem comes it would be solved if 
the configure script checked for the xmms headers . 
 
Best regards 
Gustavo

The ./configure scripts looks for xmms-config and finds the
information it needs from it. It doesn't look for a specific
package instantiation in a specific distribution.

Unfortunately, it only tried to detect if xmms is installed
and not if xmms-config is.

It will now check the result of running xmms-config and see
that it got sane information. This is committed and will be
in the next version.
