[vorbis] several (different and seperate) compiling problems

[dongoodman]

I thought I had seen something about this earlier, but a search through
the archives revealed nothing...

first problem:
Under Windows ME, using VC++6 (sp4), VC does not recognize the project
files in the beta3 source tarball as being valid project files. it complains
that they were not generated by VC++6, and would I like to create a wrapper
for these makefiles? It doesn't work. I checked them out manually, and
they appear fine...I wonder if its not because of service pack 4? i have
no clue at all...

econd problem:
installing and compiling beta3 ogg and vorbis source RPMS:
ogg goes ok...only after its compiled, and I've generated an RPM, it
doesn't install the header files in /usr/include/ogg...it doesn't, in fact
install them anywhere. minor problem, easily corrected by hand for now.
but the real hum-dinger is when i try to configure vorbis, from
the source RPM's or from the tarball...it complains that ogg has not
been installed! error: -logg is an invalid library (on test compiles).
however, /usr/lib/libogg.so.0 (or whatever the shared library is called,
can't remember off the top of my head) is very much there...is it expecting
libogg.a? argh! vorbis-tools give the same error.

arghle.

have fun
