Probably because of the 'unstable development versions of C++ compiler - gcc
2.96' in current Mandrake and RedHat.
I just uninstalled avifile. I fetched avifile 0.6.0 from CVS at sourceforge,
followed the advice from http://divx.euro.ru and did:
"Manually edit the source code and remove all instances of keyword
'inline' from lib/audiodecoder/mpeg/filter.cpp and filter_2.cpp."
Then, after minor editing of the makefile ( it's cvs, after all ) I
successfully built it in 8.0 - it runs well.
If anyone else wants to try this, be sure you have libSDL-devel installed
first - it's not installed by default in 8.0.
Regards,
Peter
