Hi , thank you for your prompt reply , the package libass-dev is in my
repository but simply following the
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu guide I can't see
which step it is that actually 'loads' that libass-dev execution module
into the configure process , 'once the penny drops' and I understand I
should be able to add libass-dev and other missing modules should they
also occur . Thank you ,

the same way as you install any other package on your distribution?
and the same for all other missing dev-packages

apt-get install libass-dev

https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu clearly lists "libass-dev" as well as states the install command

Get the Dependencies

Copy and paste the whole code box for each step. First install the dependencies:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install autoconf automake build-essential libass-dev libfreetype6-dev \ libsdl2-dev libtheora-dev libtool libva-dev libvdpau-dev libvorbis-dev libxcb1-dev libxcb-shm0-dev \
  libxcb-xfixes0-dev pkg-config texinfo zlib1g-dev

Hi , I am trying to set up a fully working version of ffmpeg on my Linux
Mint Qiana 17 OS , using thecomprehensive guide
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu . Please find
attached
a config.log complaining about a libass package not in the path . Also
please see a second attached file pkg-configversion.txt showing releases
data . I am an English old-age-pensioner and using Mint's Synaptic
Package
Manager I had Completely Removed ffmpeg version 7:2.4.3-1ubuntu1~trusty
before following the guide . Any suggestions will be gratefully
received and
requests for more data will be acted upon .
This is the relevant error in config.log:
pkg-config --exists --print-errors libass
Package libass was not found in the pkg-config search path.

This implies you have not installed libass-dev (or libass-devel)
