The following general tools are used on various platforms and it is
recommended you use these versions or similar:
- * subversion - 1.5.5
+ * subversion - 1.6.2
* python - Python 2.4.6
- * curl - curl 7.19.3 (or wget)
+ * curl - curl 7.19.4 (or wget)
* m4 - GNU M4 1.4.6
Configure will automatically create a scratch build directory `build'
unless you use GNU-style build procedures and first `cd' to a directory

-to specify the directory. The name of the directory is arbitrary but it
-is recommended to use something which indicates transient files which
-are not checked into the repository.

The `configure' utility accepts many options. It is recommended that
you specify `--help' for the complete list of options. The following

There are generally two methods for scrapping a build. The `build'

+directory can be recursively removed which has the effect of loosing
your existing configuration but does guarantee no residuals are left
behind. The other method is to ask the build system to perform an `make
xclean'. This is known to work well but will leave empty directories
The build system supports passing many kinds of targets some of which
become very useful in normal development cycles. The targets by
convention are lower-case words passed to `make'. Global targets are
-one-word targets. Scoped targets are usually two-words seperated by a

5.4.1 Global
---------------------
Contrib modules such as `a52dec', `bzip2', `faac', `faad2', `ffmpeg',
-`lame', `libdca', `libdvdread', `libmkv', `libmp4v2', `libogg',
-`libsamplerate', `libtheora', `libvorbis', `mpeg2dec', `x264',
-`xvidcore' and `zlib' have the following scoped targets:

+ `TOP/downloads' directory. No check-summing is performed.
`make MODULE.extract'
Extract source tarball into `build' tree.
(essentially gnu-make variables) the recommended method is to create
optional include files which are automatically included if present and
follow this naming convention; Do not check these files into the
-respository:
+repository:
`_SRC_/custom.defs'
Custom makevar definitions outside `build'. Suitable for settings
`_SRC_/custom.defs' might contain:
## bump to gcc-4.2 in current path
- GCC.gcc = gcc-4.2
+ GCC.gcc = /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
- ## replace optimize for 'speed' with more agressive settings
+ ## replace optimize for 'speed' with more aggressive settings
GCC.args.O.speed = -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -msse4.2
See also `make report.help' which displays a set of reports used to
dump makefile vars.
+6 Troubleshooting
+*****************
+
+When troubleshooting build issues, the following files relative to the
+`build/' directory may be especially useful:
+
+`GNUmakefile'
+ Top-level makefile which contains build settings generated via
+ configure.
+
+`log/config.info.txt'
+ Record of output from configure.
+
+`log/config.verbose.txt'
+ Record of verbose output from configure.
+
+`log/build.txt'
+ Record of output from `configure --launch'. Similar output may be
+ recorded using `make' depending on which shell is in use, eg:
+ `make >& log/build.txt' or `make > log/build.txt 2>&1'.
+
+`log/xcodemake.env.txt'
+ Environment (variables) dump as seen when Xcode forks `make'.
+ Mac OS X only.
