Reimar Döffinger <[email protected]> added the comment:

You cannot test a --enable-shared build without installing since there is no
portable way to make it use non-installed shared libraries. This means you are
testing the new ffmpeg binary against the old (non-forward-compatible)
libraries, that makes no sense.
There are system-specific ways like LD_LIBRARY_PATH that allows testing without
installing but that you'll have to take care of yourself.
On the other hand, a patch that makes ffmpeg check for that case and fail with
too old libraries probably would be welcome.
