Salix 13.37 - ekiga

I built the unstable branch of the ptlib -> opal -> ekiga chain. Unfortunately, without H.264 support, as opal and ekiga cannot detect the new x264 package included in the official repository.

Links:
ptlib - http://people.salixos.org/lmello/pkg/l/ptlib/
opal - http://people.salixos.org/lmello/pkg/l/opal/
ekiga - http://people.salixos.org/lmello/pkg/gnome/ekiga/

note - ekiga is slow on startup, but it works.

I don't think you need to disable H.264 support. If I remember correctly, the opal package in the repo is a little old, and repackaging opal itself is sufficient to run ekiga without a problem.

Really?

I tried to compile ekiga with newer versions of ptlib (2.8.4) and opal (3.8.4) and always got myself error messages...

I am trying to install the latest Ekiga branch with the SLKBUILD scripts by lmello, and I am failing to do so.

PTLIB 2.10 (tarball)
I have renamed opalvoip-v2_10.tar.gz to ptlib-2.10.tar.gz and changed line #5 to pkgver=2.10

OPAL 3.10 (tarball)
I have renamed opalvoip-v3_10.tar.gz to opal-3.10.tar.gz and changed line #5 to pkgver=3.10

To get the latest version of Ekiga from Git, I have used this script

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
pkgname=ekiga

# set pkgver to current date
pkgver=$(date +%Y%m%d)
if [ -d $pkgname ]; then
	(
	cd $pkgname
	git pull --depth 1
	)
else
	git clone --depth 1 git://git.gnome.org/ekiga
fi

# create the source archive
tar czf $pkgname-$pkgver.src.tar.gz ekiga

# change the SLKBUILD
sed -i 's#^pkgver=.*#pkgver='$pkgver'#' SLKBUILD
