Install XviD by running the following commands:
cd build/generic &&
./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make &&
make install &&
ln -sf libxvidcore.so.4.0 /usr/lib/libxvidcore.so.4 &&
ln -sf libxvidcore.so.4 /usr/lib/libxvidcore.so
ln -s libxvidcore.so.4 /usr/lib/libxvidcore.so: This command makes applications linked against .so names, link to .so.MAJOR. This ensures better binary compatibility, as XviD developers take care not changing the MAJOR number until there is an incompatible ABI change.
The XviD core package contains the libxvidcore library.
