For x264 and vpx support, you should install: apt-get install libx264-dev libvpx-dev libswscale-dev libavcodec-dev That said.. > I’m not sure where to go from here — any suggestions? Use the binary packages we provide, it will save you a lot of grief. If you insist on building from source, and since you are on a distribution (Ubuntu Precise) with known unfixable problems with libav, build without x264 or libav: ./setup.py --without-x264 --without-dec_avcodec Bearing in mind that xpra is an order of magnitude more efficient with x264 enabled.. I can only suggest you use a more up to date distro.
