Ok, so it works now:

wait.
which libraries is Gem linked with?
try "ldd /path/to/Gem.pd_linux"

I pasted this at the end of this mail in case this is of interest for you...

...
and then something like
% ./configure --without-ffmpeg

anyhow, just add another "--without-mpeg3" to the configure options.

Ok, I tried with both the above flags and it seems to be working ok again, at least it created a pix_film and copied several patches without troubles....

So thanks for the fast reply, I'll post some of my work to the list soon...

cheers,
