Unable to install avconv/libav


I'm having no luck install libav on OS X Mavericks. Ive tried everything.

I'm following this guide: http://earthwithsun.com/questions/568464/install-latest-libav-avconv-on-osx

After doing the macport dependency check, which passes, I then run

./configure \
--enable-gpl --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid \
--enable-version3 --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb \
--enable-nonfree --enable-libfaac \
--enable-libmp3lame --enable-libspeex --enable-libvorbis --enable-libtheora --enable-libvpx \
--enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libfreetype --enable-doc --enable-gnutls --enable-shared

This fails with the following error:

Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.2.1

ERROR: gnutls not found

If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from Git.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
libav-tools@libav.org mailing list or IRC #libav on irc.freenode.net.
Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.

ERROR: gnutls not found

I've added the path to header files in the environment before running configure, but still no luck

export CFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include -L/opt/local/lib"
export CXXFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include -L/opt/local/lib"

Can anyone help?


Solution

  • I had the same error as you. You need to install gnutls.

    I found a how-to here : https://gist.github.com/morgant/1753095

    This complete list of commands worked for me (OSX 10.6) :

    cd ~/Desktop
    mkdir wget-build
    cd wget-build
    curl -O ftp://ftp.gmplib.org/pub/gmp-5.0.2/gmp-5.0.2.tar.bz2
    tar xjf gmp-5.0.2.tar.bz2
    pushd gmp-5.0.2
    CC=gcc-4.2 CXX=g++4.2 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
    make
    sudo make install
    popd
    curl -O http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/archive/nettle-2.4.tar.gz
    tar xzf nettle-2.4.tar.gz
    pushd nettle-2.4
    CFLAGS="-m64" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-assembler
    make
    sudo make install
    popd
    curl -O http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/gnutls-2.12.12.tar.bz2
    tar xjf gnutls-2.12.12.tar.bz2
    pushd gnutls-2.12.12
    CFLAGS="-m64" CXXFLAGS="-m64" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --without-p11-kit
    make
    sudo make install
    popd
    

    You could also try to use Brew (http://brew.sh/) and install gnutls via :

     brew install gnutls
    

    Finally a third way that worked for me :

    curl -O http://libav.org/releases/libav-10.1.tar.gz
    tar xjf libav-10.1.tar.gz
    cd libav-10.1
    ./configure
    make install
    

    Enjoy !
