[MPlayer-users] Build failure: Cannot find vidix libs; How to specify their location?

[Gregg Leichtman]

I'm running into a problem when I attempt to use:

rpmbuild --rebuild --target `uname -r` --with gui mplayer-0.90pre5-1.src.rpm

to create an rpm package with the gui.

I'm using gcc3-3.1 as specified, but get the following at the end of the 
build:

...

I installed the vidix libs from the vidix rpm along with the radeon driver, 
since I have an AGP Radeon 7500, by disabling the mplayer dependency so that 
I could get to the libs.

I tried copying the libs from /usr/lib to the 
/var/tmp/mplayer-0.90pre5-root/usr/lib directory, but this directory is 
cleaned at each build and the libs are erased before they can be used.

How can I tell rpmbuild where to find the vidix libs and radeon driver lib?
