[MPlayer-users] Re: Build failure: Cannot find vidix libs; How to specify their location?

[Gregg Leichtman]

Ok, I gave up on attempting to build using rpmbuild as suggested on the dload 
page and went directly to configure after unpacking the source tree. This 
worked and after a little fiddling with moving font and skin files around I 
can now get the gui to come up. I discovered that the rpm's for the fonts and 
the default skin put the files in the "wrong" place at /usr/share/mplayer 
instead of /usr/local/share/mplayer. Also, the rpm for the default skin 
failed to include the skin description file. The bz2 compressed file does 
include the description file. 

It also would be helpful to note somewhere in the docs that one font should be 
chosen and its corresponding files should be placed in the font directory or 
that a link should be created to one font directory.
