Hello all!
I just hit a nasty annoyance concering libvorbis and gcc4. Detailed description of what is going on, can be found here: http://trac.xiph.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/583 The hickup here that oggenc linked to the faulty libvorbis will produce larger files with poor audio quality. Apparently there exists a fix in the svn repository of libvorbis, but it is not yet in 1.1.1 (at least, I still have the problem). I currently fixed it by using the following sed right after the configure step: sed -i [EMAIL PROTECTED]@"-O3 -fno-strict-aliasing"@g `find . -name Makefile` this will replace the nonsense -O20 with -O3 (which -O20 would anyway default to) and also disables strict aliasing, which - from what I got from the discussion - is the culprit. The correct way to deal with that will be to extract the fix from svn, but I am not qualified to do that. Also, a probably cleaner temporary solution than the sed would be to use gcc-3 for the compilation of libvorbis. Cheers, Steffen -- It must be awful to be a girl.
