I haven't got this far on my BLFS build yet, but i've been running
avidemux-2.3.0 on my Gentoo system since Christmas, & it does a much
better job of joining files than mencoder or anything else i've tried. I
had to get a custom-ebuild, because Gentoo only supported something like
version 2.0.42 at the time...
The installation log isn't showing me anything untoward except for
libdts support being unavailable (dts_internal.h not present). If you
can make sense of Gentoo ebuild syntax, here are the dependencies :-
>=x11-libs/gtk+-2.6
>=dev-libs/libxml2-2.6.7
>=dev-lang/spidermonkey-1.5-r2
>=media-libs/freetype-2.1.5
a52? ( >=media-libs/a52dec-0.7.4 )
aac? ( >=media-libs/faac-1.23.5
>=media-libs/faad2-2.0-r7 )
esd? ( media-sound/esound )
mp3? ( media-libs/libmad
>=media-sound/lame-3.93 )
xvid? ( >=media-libs/xvid-1.0.0 )
x264? ( >=media-libs/x264-svn-20061014 )
nls? ( >=sys-devel/gettext-0.12.1 )
vorbis? ( >=media-libs/libvorbis-1.0.1 )
arts? ( >=kde-base/arts-1.2.3 )
alsa? ( >=media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.9 )
sdl? ( media-libs/libsdl )
|| ( (
xv? ( x11-libs/libXv )
x11-libs/libX11
x11-libs/libXext
x11-libs/libXrender
) virtual/x11 )
...plus the following at build-time :-
dev-util/pkgconfig
>=sys-devel/autoconf-2.58
>=sys-devel/automake-1.8.3"
Also of note is a warning in the ebuild that avidemux requires that
spidermonkey be built with 'threadsafe' support.
Mine's installed on Xorg-7.0 (--prefix=/usr with a /usr/X11R6 symlink
pointing to /usr).
See if any of those minimum version-numbers might be to blame.
