Build fails for redhat 7.1 (libmikmod-config is broken, which breaks all of the Makefiles)

CVS head gst-plugins fails to build on redhat 7.1 due to a broken libmikmod-config (mikmod-3.1.6-10): rkinder-lab:469> /usr/bin/libmikmod-config --libs -L/usr/lib -lmikmod -lpthread -ldl -L%prefix/lib -L/usr/lib -lm Which screws up all of the Makefiles. Solution is for the user to upgrade the mikmod package to the RH 8.0 RPM (mikmod-3.1.6-17 in the filename, is really 3.1.9). Maybe a quick sanity check could be put in configure.in to check the output from the libmikmod-config --libs is sane?
Hey Richard, yeah, that's a bug, but in mikmod-config. You can do any number of things here: * rebuild the src rpm with a fix * rebuild 8.0's src rpm * manually edit mikmod-config and fix it. I'm going to mark it as notabug, because putting in workarounds for every possible dependency mistake is a bit overkill IMO :)
