Not to be insulting, but I *wish* folks would read everything I wrote.
I have a number of machines with motion running. I have one, now, that's on CentOS 6. We do *not* want to be building and packaging for each machine, for each new kernel. We *really* just want to use yum to install compiled packages.
Now, so far, motion, and ffmpeg, are not available for 6. rpmfusion/updates/free/testing has faad2. I don't see ffmpeg, much less motion. So I'm stuck trying to work from an 5 repository for ffmpeg. I've already, unwillingly, gotten the tarball for motion, but can't install ffmpeg and ffmpeg-libs from EL5, because of the dependency on libfaad.so.0 (cf, "dependency hell") I don't *seem* to be drawing the libfaad from 5 via yum, which I guess is my problem.
And I *am* under orders as to what repositories are acceptable, and which are not.
mark, with enough work to do to not want to rebuild from git
