I had read the DOC/encoding.html and downloaded avifile from the cvs and
thought that divX4linux is part of it. I was wrong. Today I downloaded the
divX4linux.gz file and installed it using install.sh script.

After that I recompiled avifile and ./configure gave me this :

------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration:
Compiler C:       gcc -g -O2 -march=i586 -ffast-math  -pipe

  MAD             yes  (MPEG Layer I/II/III)
  ogg/vorbis      no
  lame runtime    yes
------------------------------------------------------------------

I have got lame installed too.(Yes libraries)

Now if I do make mencoder (cvs 23112001) it goes on without problem however
make install gives me this :

---------- SNIP ----------------------------------------------------------

make: *** [mencoder] Error 1
---------- SNIP ----------------------------------------------------------

Why is it giving Segmentation fault and core dump ?

I am on debian GCC 2.95.
I have got the following now on my system :

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ii  avifile        0.6-1          avifile - Runtime Libraries
ii  lame           3.89-1         lame - mp3 encoder & libraries runtime
ii  gcc            2.95.4-6       The GNU C compiler.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for all the help. 

Thanks in advance.

Peace
