Is this still the case with revision 25102?

Replying to jmr@…:

Is this still the case with revision 25102?

Yes; I've attached a full log.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Also reported against ffmpeg in #30001.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I see this problem was ​reported in September 2009 on the ffmpeg-user mailing list but I don't see any response to it.

Patch file for ffmpeg 0.7.1 that fixes Tiger build problem.

[ultrajoe@…]

I have uploaded a patch file that fixes the ffmpeg build issue on my PowerMac G4 running OS X 10.4.11. I would assume that the patch for ffmpeg-devel would be similar, if not identical.

I will be submitting this patch file to the developer as well.

[danstowell+macports@…]

I have the same problem, installing ffmpeg @0.7.1_0+no_nonfree.

ultrajoe's fix worked for me (10.4.11 intel).

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Has duplicate #31909.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

ultrajoe, thank you for the patch. Question: Why should the use of the -compatibility_version switch be restricted to darwin 8? Why not use it all the time?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Wait, now I understand. You're removing the compatibility_version switch on darwin 8 only.

[rudloff@…]

I confirm that this patch works on Tiger.
