configure:38407: *** for plug-ins: theora *** configure:38451: checking for THEORA configure:38459: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "$which" Requested 'theora >= 1.0alpha5' but version of theora is 1.0RC1 configure:38462: $? = 1 configure:38477: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "$which" Requested 'theora >= 1.0alpha5' but version of theora is 1.0RC1 configure:38480: $? = 1 Requested 'theora >= 1.0alpha5' but version of theora is 1.0RC1
among other things, this should be changed to 'theoraenc theoradec'. I think those arrived after 1.0alpha5, so perhaps checking on those would be sufficient.
I have 1.0 beta2 and don't have theoraenc and theoradec pkg-config files.
The new pc files appeared in 1.0beta3, dated 16-Apr-2008. That's a little recent for a dependency, so I'd suggest: if have 'theoradec theoraenc', use those if have 'theora >= 1.0alpha5', use that That should take care of all the alphas, betas, rcs, and 1.0. Btw, using 'theora' with recent releases causes linking problems on windows, and is deprecated anyway.
2008-12-08 Sebastian Dröge <sebastian.droege@collabora.co.uk> * configure.ac: First check for "theoraenc theoradec" and if that failed check for "theora >= 1.0alpha5". The former appeared in 1.0beta3 and deprecate the latter. Also linking on Windows fails with just "theora" and the version check would fail for the release candidates. Fixes bug #563718.
