Fedora doesn't use any proprietary codecs so the ffmpeg stuff isn't built and in fact we strip some of the codecs out of opal because of their non-free status so ffmpeg is not a problem I ever have to deal with. We explicitly remove the directories "plugins/video/H.263-1998/ plugins/video/H.264/ plugins/video/MPEG4-ffmpeg/" before we upload the tar file into Fedora's build infra. I once asked upstream whether we could split them out into a non-free tar file release or even ship them separately but disappointingly got hailed down. Anything we do to the vanilla upstream is in the git repos here. http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ptlib.git http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/opal.git http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/ekiga.git > Have you got any hints where reference patterns like "_link" and > "__static_initialization_and_destruction_0" do come from? Sounds like linker related bits. What distro are you using? I suggest getting it building with out ffmpeg first in your environment so you know the basics work and then add ffmpeg to a configuration that you know is working.
