mediatomb fails to build on OSX 10.8.2

[linickx]

Hello,
I have a clean install of ML, other brews install ok, brew doctor ok but mediatomb fails.

The verbose output, logfile and doctor output is in this gist https://gist.github.com/linickx/5007880

The summary of the fail is below.

I updated the fails_with to 425, but now get this build error:

The MacPorts port has additional patches for ffmpeg: https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/net/mediatomb/Portfile

linickx@b0d70c8#commitcomment-2682206 => I tried just dropping those patches into the formula, but it's doesn't appear to be that simple 😟

[jacknagel]

MacPorts patches have to be applied with -p0, grep for :p0 => for examples.

[linickx]

Yep, that does the trick => linickx@b5d9d62#commitcomment-2776120 ... anyone wanna test/confirm before I raise a pull request?

[adamv]

I'm a little confused here; since the formula has no declared dependencies, either it is finding installed software anyway, or the compiler errors are coming from the software's own code.

[adamv]

I see on 10.6 it's picking up the taglib I have installed. Looks like some deps need to be declared.

[linickx]

It builds with two of the three macports patches => linickx@3ed9fb7
The config log ( https://gist.github.com/linickx/5135251 ) shows that it will pickup your taglib, I will put in some explicit dependencies to see if that makes the build better

[linickx]

Build with dependencies Works For Me => linickx@9c2fba5 & https://gist.github.com/linickx/5135619

Please submit a pull request with the change

I have the same issue and I think it may be due to some API changes in mp4v2. The logs refers to functions (MP4GetMetadata*) that were deprecated (http://mp4v2.googlecode.com/svn/doc/1.9.0/api/group__mp4__meta.html) and has been removed in mp4v2-2.0.0 (https://code.google.com/p/mp4v2/).

I tried to compile the latest master and the ./configure script now checks if these functions are present in the mp4v2 version installed on the system. I have mp4v2-2.0.0. Here are the last lines of my ./configure script output

As you can see mp4v2 is flagged as not compatible. When I run make, mediatomb builds succesfully.

I think we just need an older version of mp4v2.
