ok, i made progress. libtool is indeed what it was looking for.
after changing ALL the locations of the hearder files provided by livid, i
can get through what seems to be most of the compiling. i still get this
msg, and i have no idea what it means:
navalle> make
make all-recursive

Making all in libao
make[2]: Entering directory `/root/dvd/ac3dec/libao'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.

make[2]: *** [codec_ac3dec.la] Error 1

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/dvd/ac3dec'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
does anyone know what this libtool error message means? i assume it's the
@@MM_LIBS@@ that's causing the heartache. any ideas?
now i know why it's called livid! :(
