Sorry about that. Getting AAC as an encoding option was still not
available, compiling went fine.
FYI: I tried using soundkonverter as well, and that allowed AAC encoding

No success on what? compiling? converting?

Yes, perfect.
The old soundconverter still uses gstreamer 0.10, and the plugins are
not packaged anymore.
