Hi All,

could anyone compile and link mjpegtools-1.6.2 on the AMD! I've tried it for three days now, but it doesn't work. Does anybody has a src.rpm or an already compiled x86_64 (with mpeg2enc)???

Thanx in advance Mike

Hi, I tried it too and asked at mjpeg-users list. Here are the postings: I tried to install mjpegtools 1.6.2 on Suse 9.1 x86_64. I ran configure with --enable-libsuffix=64 and got no errors. When I typed make, the following error was reportet: /snap lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/crtendS.o /usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../lib64/crtn.o -Wl,-soname -Wl,libmplex2-1.6.so.0 -o .libs/libmplex2-1.6.so.0.2.2 /usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: ../utils/libmjpegutils.a(mjpeg_logging.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC ../utils/libmjpegutils.a: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [libmplex2.la] Fehler 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/SHARE/Linux/RPMS/SRC/mjpegtools-1.6.2/mplex' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Fehler 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/SHARE/Linux/RPMS/SRC/mjpegtools-1.6.2' make: *** [all] Fehler 2 Can anyone help? the answer: Hi, On Fri, 2004-09-03 at 10:18, Michael Steinhauser wrote:

This should be corrected in CVS for some time already. Ronald So i downloaded the latest CVS-version, did a ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --enable-libsuffix=64 --sysconfdir=/etc --with-x --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib64 --with-gnu-ld --without-libquicktime --with-gtk-prefix=/opt/gnome and it compiled with no errors. After a checkinstall, where i had to change some settings (version was there to often) i had a installable rpm. It installed without errors, but i did not try it till now.
