Re: [Linphone-users] linphone-3.3.1 released

[Bent Bagger]

Hi Simon

Thanks for the advice.

That brought me through the configure phase. Now I'm stuck with a
compile, or rather a loader/linker problem: When make tries to build the
mediastreamer library I get this error:

cannot find -lavcodec

The lines leading up to this error are:

=============

As I read the gcc man page, the -l option searches for a library called
avcodec, but the installed library is called libavcodec.

How do I circumvent this problem?

Kind regards,
