Thanks, but at least in kubuntu, there is no pc files for libfaac/faad: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ pkg-config --list-all | grep -i faac [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ I do check 7 packages using pkg-config, but for e.g. mad, it turns out that the .pc file is specific to (k)ubuntu > > Sigh.

It currently only supports the MPEG 1 standard, but fully implements all three audio layers (Layer I, Layer II, and Layer III, the latter often colloquially known as MP3.) . This is the package you need to develop or compile applications that use MAD. I have added a check for that, because my own compiles at some point has required it? I could try without it though - would solve my "is the package present" problem :-) Regards Mads -- Mads Bondo Dydensborg [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.madsdydensborg.dk/ There was a time when religion ruled the world.
