xine-lib undefined symbol: _dscaler_tomsmocomp_get_method

[promac@…]

I managed to compile xine-ui (there was a missing -lXext), but xine-lib has and undefined symbol.

This is the latest macports running on Snow Leopard:

Thanks.

I can't even build xine-ui 0.99.5, probably because xine-lib has been updated. xine-ui should probably be updated to 0.99.6; unfortunately, I can't build that either. The problem I'm experiencing with 0.99.6 is basically the one ​described on the mailing list last year, with no response on how to fix it. I'll attach my portfile update attempt in case it helps somebody.

xine ui 0.99.5 built fine for me. If I remember well, I only had to add -lXext in the Makefile in /src/xitk (-lX11 -lXext).

Then, it is just a question of using make.

I think xine-lib 1.2.1 should now be building the plugin that provides that symbol.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Building xine-ui 0.99.6 still fails for me. I've attached the new main.log.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Since the globals are not explicitly initialised, they are treated as common symbols. For some reason, object files that contain only common symbols are not added to the archive table of contents by ar. I don't know if this is a bug, but adding initialisers fixes the problem in any case.
