Hi, can you try uninstalling or deactivating any previous version of ffmpeg and installing the new one?

[paulbeard@…]

That works: it was pointed out on the list, and I tried it. Can that be part of the upgrade, as a pre-flight step or something?

[klaus.buchholzer@…]

If you don't want to uninstall your working copy of ffmpeg until your new one compiles try to remove in the command that fails the following link path -L/opt/local/lib I had to do this two times until the compile finished.

Steps:

1. go and find the offending directory where the ld (link) happens
   
2. run the command 'make' and pipe stdout into a file
   
3. edit this file properly and run it in your shell as sh-code
   
4. recap from 'da capo' for all other places until done
   
5. perform the 'port -vuc upgrade ffmpeg' or the like
   

Good luck
