So now I go and decompress xine-ui. Run ./configure and I get:

Can someone translate this into English for me?
That you need to run ldconfig as root. Explanation: it is a library, so the system has to be told that it has a new dynamic library somewhere.
Is there a set location I should be installing things from? (In this case, I just used /home/krikket/donwloads, which is where I dumped the tarball after downloading. Was this a mistake?)
I don't think so. The make install phase will copy things somewhere in /usr/local/*/ -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
