3832	VLC-2.0.5 may need a sed	Arthur Radley	blfs-book@…	"The current version of automake no longer tolerates references to long-deprecated macros. This caused serious problems for me building VLC-2.0.5 in the current book. Armin K gave me a sed at the blfs-support mailing list to correct the source code for this. I applied it after the patch command and before the bootstrap command like this in my case... 

{{{
patch -Np1 -i ../vlc-2.0.5-opencv_fixes-1.patch &&
sed ""s@AM_CONFIG_HEADER@AC_CONFIG_HEADERS@g"" -i configure.ac &&
./bootstrap &&
sed -i ""s|LDFLAGS_sid)|& -L/usr/lib/sidplay/builders|"" modules/demux/Makefile.in &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-zvbi --enable-faad --enable-aa &&
make
}}}

Then the configure step ran longer, did a lot more, and ended with a success message. Maybe there is just something unique about my situation. If not though, adding this sed might improve the book."	defect	closed	normal		BOOK	SVN	medium	fixed	VLC automake macros
