In reviewing this thread of 32 notes, I was looking for anything that could be included in the manual to help in building a custom version.  However, I think that the current statements of:

    1) Getting a build to work in a custom environment is not easy.
    2) With persistence, you can get results, but it may take several
    tries to stabilize the build. If you need help, email the log and
    config.log, which is usually sufficient to determine why a build
    failed.

says it all. Did anyone else note something that is important to help?


Additional thougts for the web-site, with possible cross-references to/from the manual; If we could collect, complement and edit build procedure samples and experiences for each distro (family in use), this could be useful how-toes doing single user, bundled/unbundled builds. Without the help of especial Andrew and partly Andrey, I wouldn't had a change to fulfill the thread task. Simply as normal user distro installations (desktop, workstation) doesn't contain most development environment, preparing this would also ease and save time. I.e on Slowroll I have now 142 devel packages and patterns, although I expect not all of them are required for Cingg building.

    Would it be possible to combine static and dynamic in one
    pre-built so that users via setting could select what they want,
    ffmpeg and libs included or from the system?
    Or is two different pre-builts required?

    Experiences with the latter?

    ---------
    Refer to extracted sections from the CinGG manual Chapter 1 -
    Installation below:

    If you prefer to not have to take the time to build CINELERRA-GG
    Infinity yourself,
    there are pre-built dynamic or static binaries for various
    versions of Ubuntu, Mint,
    Suse, Fedora, Debian ........

    The pkgs directory contains the standard packaged application for
    various distros.
    This will install a dynamic system version for users who prefer to
    have the binaries
    in the system area

    Notes about Building from Git in your Customized Environment

    Getting a build to work in a custom environment is not easy. If
    you have already installed libraries which are normally in the
    thirdparty build, getting them to be recognized means you have to
    install the devel version so the header files which match the
    library interfaces exist. If you want to build using only the
    thirdparty libraries installed in your system, just include
    "–without-thirdparty" to your configure script. For example:

    ./confgure --with-single-user --disable-static-build
    --without-thirdparty

    Below is the list of thirdparty builds, but this list may have
    changed over time.

    Table 1.1: List of thirdparty builds

        a52dec         yes
        djbfft     yes
        ffmpeg     yes
        fftw     auto
        flac     auto
        giflib     yes
        ilmbase     auto
        lame     auto
        libavc1394     auto
        libraw1394     auto
        libiec61883    auto
        libdv          auto
        ..........

     The yes means force build and auto means probe and use the system
    version if the build operation is not static. To get your
    customized build to work, you need to change the probe options for
    the conflicting libraries from yes to auto, or even rework the
    configure.ac <http://configure.ac> script. There may be several
    libraries which need special treatment.

    An example of a problem you might encounter with your customized
    installation is with a52dec which has probes line
    (CHECK_LIB/CHECK_HEADERS) in configure.ac <http://configure.ac>,
    but djbfft does not. In this case, djbfft is only built because
    a52dec is built, so if your system has a52dec, set a52dec to auto
    and see if that problem is solved by retrying the build with:

    ./confgure --with-single-user -enable-a52dec=auto .

    With persistence, you can get results, but it may take several
    tries to stabilize the build. If you need help, email the log and
    config.log, which is usually sufficient to determine why a build
    failed.

    If you have already installed the libfdk_aac development package
    on your computer because you prefer this version over the default
    aac, you will have to do the following to get this alternative
    operational. The libfdk_aac library is not a part of CINELERRA-GG
    by default because it is not license free.

    export FFMPEG_EXTRA_CFG=" --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-nonfree"
    export EXTRA_LIBS=" -lfdk-aac"
    for f in `grep -lw aac cinelerra-5.1/ffmpeg/audio/*`; do
      sed -e 's/\<aac\>/libfdk_aac/' -i $f
    done
