I just now have a fresh install of Karmic.
Since there is no libgmerlin_avdec-dev package for ubuntu, I have decided to install it all from source. I don't want a mix of packaged and unpackaged software. Also, you only need gavl and gmerlin_avdecoder. You do not need Gmerlin.
gavl is very easy to install.
for gmerlin_avdecoder source, install these first:
sudo apt-get install libz-dev sudo apt-get install libavcodec-dev libswscale-dev sudo apt-get install libavformat-dev libpostproc-dev libspeex-dev sudo apt-get install libmjpegtools-dev libtheora-dev libvorbis-dev sudo apt-get install libschroedinger-dev libfaad-dev libflac-dev sudo apt-get install libtiff4-dev libopenjpeg-dev liba52-dev sudo apt-get install libmad0-dev libdvdread-dev libcdio-dev sudo apt-get install libmpeg2-4-dev libmpcdec-dev
(do not install libdca-dev)
then, get the gmerlin_avdecoder source. I prefer from CVS, but you can also download the tar.gz package.
then ./configure then make then make install
make sure to do: sudo ldconfig
then get readanysf with: wget http://aug.ment.org/software/readanysf~0.36.tar.gz
untar it, cd into readanysf, and do "make"
now you should have it. (I just did that from a clean Ubuntu Karmic install)
sorry its not easier, but packaging software is very unrewarding and time consuming.
best -august.
A lot!
It seems, that this is way is _much_ cleaner (without having to do nasty things to the sources). I didn't compile gmerlin, since there is a ubuntu package, but obviously it's better compile it as well.
Thanks Roman

First I installed gavl 1.1.1 - http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmerlin/files/gavl/1.1.1/gavl-1.1.1.tar.gz/d... nload then texinfo (sudo apt-get install texinfo) as prompted by the ./configure stage of gmerlin 0.4.1 then gmerlin 0.4.1 - http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmerlin/files/gmerlin/0.4.1/gmerlin-0.4.1.ta.... gz/download then gmerlin-avdecoder 1.0.1 - http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmerlin/files/gmerlin-avdecoder/1.0.1/gmerli... avdecoder-1.0.1.tar.gz/download finally I compiled readanysf~ 0.36 http://aug.ment.org/software/readanysf~0.36.tar.gz http://aug.ment.org/software/readanysf%7E0.36.tar.gz and copied the ,pd_linux file to /usr/lib/pd/extra
I had an error message in the pd console: libgmerlin_avdec.so.1 not found or something, so I installed libgmerlin0 via synaptic and then it worked.
Hope this helps!
