building against a static binary

[msmithng]

I'm currently working with a statically linked binary of ffmpeg and I'm attempting to make bmdtools and I'm getting hit with an odd linker issue on ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Are there any known issues with compiling against a static build or am I just not correctly pointing to the dependency locations?

/root/sandbox/bmdtools # export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/root/sandbox/ffmpeg-build/bin/lib/pkgconfig"
/root/sandbox/bmdtools # PATH="$PATH:/root/sandbox/ffmpeg-build/lib/"
/root/sandbox/bmdtools # make SDK_PATH="/root/sandbox/inputs/DeckLink_SDK/Linux/include/"

I'm using an up to date branch

    Useful to measure the pipeline delay.

I have successfully installed this in the past on CentOS 6.4 without any issue the only difference being that the packages in question were built and installed as per the dictates on the internet.

You are using FFmpeg, it is not supported. Please use a recent version of Libav.
