[Libav-user] ff_log2_tab defined multiple times in the fmpeg 1.1 libraries, bug or feature ??

[Lars Hammarstrand]

Apparently there are some issues with ios 64-bit osx: "
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2906147/what-does-the-all-load-linker-flag-do
":

*"Important:* For 64-bit and iPhone OS applications, there is a linker bug
that prevents -ObjC from loading objects files from static libraries that
contain only categories and no classes. The workaround is to use the
-all_load or -force_load flags"
