Since the commits reagarding cmake cleanups, I can't build from source anymore:
The Libs are installed, and I also added it to the list of cmake-libraries but cmake doesnt find some libs.

How to get this building again?
@Fuzzard could you give some insights?

Hi because I lost my 1st very long post (ip locked) I will do short this time.

debian-12.5.0-amd64-netinst.iso
Create a user kodi
just ssh ans system utilities
then : https://paste.kodi.tv/ececihofug

If unlocked I will create a real post (And the forum think I post a log so I cant include the method in a answer....)

No idea. why would you be building internal curl?

3dfx · 2024-06-30, 05:13

I started building internal curl when it started throwing errors, but it seems there was something wrong with my pkgcfg Confused

**Fuzzard** · 2024-06-30, 09:15

Best piece of advice I have for Linux users, do not build internal dependencies. Use/fix your system libs.

The only reason they can be built for Linux is we use for CI, but it's not complete, and relies on a number of oddities to even do what it does.

So to reiterate, just don't. Use your system libs always

3dfx · 2024-06-30, 09:49

Does this apply also for ffmpeg?
I build that internally as, somehow, I got a newer version installed and I got the issues like in this PR: Update to ffmpeg 7.0

**Fuzzard** · 2024-06-30, 10:29

No idea what distro your running, but if it has ffmpeg 6 libs, I'd use them

3dfx · 2024-07-01, 07:08

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04, version of ffmpeg is 7, that's why I couldn't build anymore, so I had to switch building it internally.

Here is the list of installed ffmpeg-libraries:

dpkg -l | grep -i ffmpeg:

Are you sure about this? On rolling release distros, the system ffmpeg can and often does exceed the Kodi rversion which is the past has lead to breakage in Kodi until the Kodi version catches up. On the other hand, building with an internal ffmpeg allows that version to stay with the Kodi version. For example, right now ffmpeg is 7.0.1 but Omega is 6.0.1.

Do whatever you need to. Advice is just that, take it or not, that's up to you

3dfx · 2024-07-01, 13:58

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against taking any advice, my thread wouldn't make sense if it would be the case.
I was just curious why this happened or if I did something wrong as it was not building anymore.

It happened because your distro is shipping a version of ffmpeg that is different from what Kodi is expecting. Until the PR to update to ffmpeg 7.0.1 is merged, as of the time I am posting this reply, xbmc/master wants version 6.0.1. See: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/9269...9ac11cc4e9

In part to avoid this version mismatch, some distros build with various Kodi components as their respective internal options. Arch Linux for example does this for multiple components including ffmpeg, see: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/p...s#L147-154
