Hi,

It seems the latest CVS versions of avifile do not build on
my system.  The problem is that configure does not find my
QT installation.

System: debian (unstable)
QT version: 2.3.2 (installed in a non standard location)

After I checkout avifile, I do:

cd avifile-0.6
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/l1/multimedia/avifile-cvs-020412/avifile-0.6 
--with-qt-dir=/l1/libs/qt-x11-2.3.2/

All goes well, until:

checking C compiler version... gcc 2.95.4
checking for X... libraries /usr/X11R6/lib, headers /usr/X11R6/include
checking for Qt... checking for main in -lqt-mt... yes
cat: conftest.c: No such file or directory

*** WARNING: Could not find usable Qt on your system! If it _is_ installed,
*** delete ./config.cache and re-run ./configure, specifying path to
*** Qt headers and libraries in configure options. Also possible reason
*** could be you are trying to link Qt libraries compiled with different
*** compiler - Qt libraries compiled with different compiler then the one
*** used right now can't be linked TOGETHER - see ./config.log for the reason
***           Switching off compilation of Qt utilities.

>From my config.log:

configure:7109: checking C compiler version
configure:7136: checking for X
configure:7397: checking for Qt
configure:7573: checking for main in -lqt-mt

t-mt -lXext -lX11  1>&5
gcc: conftest.c: No such file or directory
configure: failed program was:
configure:7960: checking for jpeglib.h

This looks to me like the configure script is broken on my machine.

FYI:
CVS from 020408 works correctly.
CVS from 020412 is broken.

Also: avifile0.7-20020412.tar.gz supplied configure script fails
the same way as the broken CVS version.

These are my tools:

automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p4
aclocal (GNU automake) 1.4-p4
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.4.2a (1.922.2.79 2001/11/28 21:50:31)
Autoconf version 2.13

If there is any other way I can help, please let me know.

-Paul
