Description Ragnorok 2009-12-16 00:23:45 UTC 
checking for LIBOIL... no
configure: error: liboil-0.3.14 or later is required
  configure failed
[rags@prennr gst-plugins-base]$

- OS is Fedora 12 x86_64 on Phenom X3 720 BE.
- Haven't tried the soft link trick yet.  The "software manager" claims 0.3.16 is installed, but find doesn't reveal any .so with that version number:

[root@prennr src]# find / -name "liboil*" -print
/usr/lib64/liboil-0.3.so.0.3.0
/usr/lib64/liboil-0.3.so.0
/usr/share/doc/liboil-0.3.16
[root@prennr src]# 

- Code is a fresh anon pull from git using the "Build using git" instructions on the gstreamer/freedesktop site.  It says to run autogen.sh from each directory, so I'm doing that to them all prior to running make in any directory.

- Softlink trick did not work.  Looking at autogen/config files.

You must install the liboil development package, which includes header files and the pkg-config file.

- Darn.  I hate when I miss simple things, especially after taking the time to look for them.  (pout)  Thanks for your time!
