User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/Libtheora
Install libtheora by running the following commands:
sed -i 's/png_\(sizeof\)/\1/g' examples/png2theora.c && ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make
If you wish to run the tests, issue: make check.
Now, as the root user:
make install
If you wish to install the examples (so that you can hack on
theora), install them as the root user:
cd examples/.libs &&
for E in *; do
install -v -m755 $E /usr/bin/theora_${E}
donesed -i 's/png_\(sizeof\)/\1/g' examples/png2theora.c: This sed fixes build with libpng 1.6.
--disable-static: This switch prevents
installation of static versions of the libraries.
