Ok, I hear you and will not try deken for Gem again. I'm going to see if I can package Gem for Arch.
That would be cool! I just gave it a shot: In order to get current Gem to configure on a current Arch system, I had to downgrade automake to 1.15 (arch is on 1.16). Then it compiled fine here, but it might be necessary to add some dependencies for external libs.
Here is the output of the ./configure:
used optional libraries:
font-rendering : FTGL default font :
image-support use ImageMagick : yes (MagickCore7) use QuickTime : yes use ImageIO : use TIFF : yes use JPEG : yes moviefile-support use PLUGINS : no (using backend) use mpeg : no use mpeg-3 : no use QuickTime : yes use AVFoundation : use aviplay : no use gmerlin : no capture-support use PLUGINS : no (using backend) use v4l : yes (libv4l) use v4l2 : yes (libv4l) use ieee1394 : yes (libdc1394) use DV : yes use Unicap : yes use Video-for-WinDOS : no use QuickTime : yes use AVFoundation :
Concerning moviefile support it looks pretty bad (no mpeg, mpeg-3, aviplay and gmerlin). But before digging deeper into it, it might be wise to find out, how far it can even get on linux. I also don't know what PLUGINS means in this context and whether it is bad that Gem doesn't seem to use it.
Maybe IOhannes can comment on this.
