Actually a desired behaviour, libavcodec.so is loaded dynamically on runtime, and if it is not found, some of ekiga's codecs (i.e. MPEG4 P 2, H.264, H.263+) will simply be deactivated (like you wrote in your first email), but ekiga will br completely functional. So I would say points 1) and 2) of your original email is normal behavior. The debug output just tells you where it looks for libavcodec.so and if it finds it. The same should be true for x264, ekiga/opal executes a helper process that is dynamically linked to x264. In case that execution fails, H.264 should simply be deactivated, and ekiga should start up anyway... So your crashes have absolutely nothing to do with ffmpeg or x264.

How shall the loader know that? I was under the impression that usually we have a symlink libavcodec.so pointo to the correct library... > > Officially, it's missing lixb264, which has patent problems [5] :-( > > Stopping here for this evening... > > Thx, bye, > Gismo / Luca > > Footnotes: > [1] http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tips.en.html#s-chroot > [2] http://mail.gnome.org/archives/ekiga-devel-list/2007-August/msg00042.html > [3] http://snapshots.ekiga.net/debian/dists/sid/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz > [4] $ for I in `dpkg -L libopal-cvs | grep so`; do > echo -n "[$I] "; > dpkg-shlibdeps -O "$I"; > ldd "$I"; > done > [5] http://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/2007/08/msg00014.html Matthias Jetzt Mails schnell in einem Vorschaufenster überfliegen.
