[Linphone-developers] linphone-3.4.3 cross-compiling fails: msv4l.c:33:28: fatal error: linux/videodev.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated

[Jean Faye]

Hi all,

I am trying to compile linphone-3.4.3 for an ARM board. After cross-compiling successfully the differents libraries (ncurses-5.9, readline-6.2, libosip2-3.5, libogg-1.3.0, libeXosip2-3.5, speex-1.2rc1, libav-0.7.1, SDL-1.2.14), I started to cross-compile linphone-3.4.3.

To cross-compile libraries and linphone, I used the instructions given in links:

EmbedFun: Cross Compiling Linphone(1)

				EmbedFun: Cross Compiling Linphone(1) In this post, we will cross compile linphone for ARM devices. When it comes to video capability, it will support video output via SDL but no web cam interface.

I used the following configuration command:

./configure --prefix=$PREFIX --host=$HOSTTPL --with-gnu-ld --disable-static --disable-glib --enable-gtk_ui=no --enable-sdl --disable-x11 --disable-libv4l --with-osip=$INSTALLDIR/usr/local --with-readline=$INSTALLDIR/usr/local SPEEX_CFLAGS="-I$INSTALLDIR/usr/local/include" SPEEX_LIBS="-L$INCLUDEDIR/usr/local/lib -lspeex" FFMPEG_CFLAGS="-I$INSTALLDIR/usr/local/include" FFMPEG_LIBS="-L$INCLUDEDIR/usr/local/lib -lavcodec" SWSCALE_CFLAGS="-I$INSTALLDIR/usr/local/include" SWSCALE_LIBS="-L$INCLUDEDIR/usr/local/lib -lswscale" SDL_CFLAGS="-I$INSTALLDIR/usr/local/include" SDL_LIBS="-L$INCLUDEDIR/usr/local/lib -lSDL"

I got the following error message "msv4l.c:33:28: fatal error: linux/videodev.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated."

Have you already faced this kind of error? How can I fix it?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Ismael Jean FAYE
