I don't know how development packages are installed in Slackware, in
Ubuntu I use this command:
apt-get install autoconf automake build-essential pkgconf libtool
libzip-dev libjpeg-dev git libavformat-dev libavcodec-dev
libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libavdevice-dev libwebp-dev
libmicrohttpd-dev autopoint
There is also alternative to build ffmpeg from sources and use it with motion:

Can you share what exactly patch you used for debugging and what
