xine-lib includes its own copy of libfaad and builds the xineplug_decode_faad module from it. Somehow xine also pulls in the standalone libfaad. I can't tell from where, probably it's an interlibrary dependency. (Audio and video apps are developing more and more a kitchen sink approach with a bewildering array of modules and linking everything against everything.) Both versions of libfaad define a global variable err_sym[], which is an array of char pointers to error messages. The two copies of err_sym[] have different sizes, which produces the linker warning above. An interested xine user might want to investigate further. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber [EMAIL PROTECTED]
