[Icecast] Trying to build ices-0.4 on ubuntu and "libshout not?usable"

Fri Apr 29 23:29:54 UTC 2016

Hi Ray:

With Ubuntu for the libshout library it will work if you install it using the apt-get command.

Apt-get install libshout-dev

I got ices to work on Ubuntu 14.04 with this.

Hope that helps.

Larry

Subject: [Icecast] Trying to build ices-0.4 on ubuntu and "libshout not usable"

Hello:
I hope someone can take a look at this and give me a little push to get me past this logjam.

I've been running icecast + ices-0.4 + a perl application developed internally which runs an mp3 stream for a number of years.
I am migrating my server from CentOS to ubuntu so I can upgrade to Perl
5.18 (so as to get clean unicode processing for another application.) I have installed everything else but ices is not cooperating.

On CentOS, I had no problem building ices-0.4. Now, configure says it can't find a usable version of libshout.
but I built libshout and it exists at /usr/local/lib:

root at vps4:/var/www/vhosts/airprogressive.org/private/othercode/ices-0.4#
ls /usr/local/lib/libshout* -al
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 543020 Apr 29 18:20 /usr/local/lib/libshout.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root   1031 Apr 29 18:20 /usr/local/lib/libshout.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     17 Apr 29 18:20 /usr/local/lib/libshout.so -> 
libshout.so.3.2.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     17 Apr 29 18:20 /usr/local/lib/libshout.so.3 
-> libshout.so.3.2.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 326803 Apr 29 18:20 /usr/local/lib/libshout.so.3.2.0

Strangely, even though I built and installed libshout-2.4.1 it winds up installing as libshout.so.3.2.0.

Here is a list of things that may be useful from a browser-activated perl script that gives me the basics.

Thank you in advance!
