Hi,

I have downloaded ezstream from http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/ezstream/ezstream-0.5.6.tar.gz

When I run the configure script, I get the following:

I do have libshout 2.2 installed, as the rpm query command shows:

Code:

[root@richt02 ezstream-0.5.6]# rpm -qa | grep shout
libshout-2.2.2-2.el5.rf
libshout-devel-2.2.2-2.el5.rf


Does anybody have any ideas why I have this problem please.

Thanks,

Richard.

I've been in touch with the author and he's kindly helped me out and I've built this successfully now.

It turns out that there is some important information in a log file that the configure script produces, which is called "config.log"

The critical section of the config.log was showing as follows:

Code:

configure:5902: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "shout"
Package theora was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `theora.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'theora', required by 'Shout', not found


What the above is suggesting is that my libshout was built with Theora support and consequently has additional dependencies. These being libtheora and libtheora-devel.

So I installed libtheora-devel and then the configure script worked with no errors, so did make and make install Smile

I figured that updating this thread with the solution would be good in case there is someone else out there that ends up with the same problem.
