[oi-dev] libjpeg-turbo and VLC

[Aurélien Larcher]

Hi,
maybe are you missing the hipster-encumbered repository ?

http://pkg.openindiana.org/hipster-encumbered/en/index.shtml

Some libs are still missing (like live55) but they are only optional.

The only showstopper is that VLC uses libjpeg-turbo's jpeg_mem_src so I
prepared several libjpeg components to provide IJG's and the Turbo
implementations in separate subdirectory.

If you have the time, you can contribute the missing optional libraries
listed here:

http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Multimedia

After adding libjpeg-turbo with 6b compliance, VLC 2.2.1 compile out of the
box provided that you add some flags:

CFLAGS=" -DLUA_COMPAT_ALL=1 -DGL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 "

The first is to enable backward compatibility mode with Lua 5.1, but I
think our 5.2 needs recompile with the backward compatibility flag.
The second is to address a compilation error.
The last bits are to make sure that the macros is declared in a consistent
way but I am not sure that is the case as some warnings still show up.

If you have more time than I have, I can push my VLC branch so that you can
finish up the component and test with the optional libraries.
But before we can add VLC to oi-userland/encumbered, I need to push the
libjpeg components in any case.
Best regards

Aurélien
