I'm not familiar enough yet with the uclinux build to suggest proper fixes (although have dealt extensively with cross compiling), but the trunk vlc build is failing to find headers and then goes on to find the system sdl-config.

Here's the work around I did:

in staging/usr/include:

ln -s libavcodec/ ffmpeg

ln -s libpostproc/ postproc

and user/vlc/Makefile:

Index: Makefile

However, this ultimately fails:

Peter:

Most everyone is out today - but I will have someone check in some fixes to trunk and branch when they get back.

Also, the symbols in src/*.sym need prefixing with _

I think that m4/libtool.m4 needs a patch based upon:

lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libtool/2007-05/txtR7ZTpUoyiJ.txt

Finally, I get:

../src/.libs/libvlccore.so: warning: fork: this function is not implemented on no-mmu systems

../src/.libs/libvlccore.so: undefined reference to `_in6addr_any'

../src/.libs/libvlccore.so: undefined reference to `_pthread_condattr_setclock'

No IPv6 is probably fine. I'm not sure about the pthread symbol. This is in src/misc/threads.s and has some related code in mtime.c (see the #error on line 92).

And to finish, there's some glibc check in src/misc/linux_specific.c which probably makes no sense.

hth.
