Programs include applications for a jukebox, a soundcard mixer, a midi and karaoke player, and a recording application for aRts. In this version of Kdemultimedia, some of the functionality provided by the package has been moved into a separate project named Akode. In order for Kdemultimedia to provide the removed functionality, you must install the Akode package first. Instructions to install Akode follow.

Now, as the root user: make install Command Explanations sed ...: The four sed commands insert headers needed by gcc-4.3 and above because the C++ header dependencies have been cleaned up. --without-ffmpeg: This option disables the experimental FFmpeg support in Akode, as the build fails if it is enabled. You can install the patch listed above and remove this switch to enable the experimental FFmpeg support, however, the functionality of Akode built with FFmpeg support has not been tested by the BLFS editors.
