[MPlayer-users] libmp3lame problem / not solved by FAQ

[Mary Strimel]

Hi,
trying to compile mplayer with mp3 encoding support. As suggested by
other posts, i have checked that the various libmp3lame libraries are
located in /usr/lib and I copied them to /usr/local/lib for good
measure.  As suggested in earlier posts, I added /usr/lib to
/etc/ld.so.conf and re-ran ldconfig, and verified that lame.h was in my
/usr/local/include; I also tried running ./configure with
--with-extraincdir=/usr/local/include.   No matter what I do, the
configuration log reports:

> #include <lame/lame.h>
> int main(void) { lame_version_t lv; (void) lame_init(); get_lame_version_numerical(&lv);  printf("%d%d\n",lv.major,lv.minor); return 0; }

I am running mandrake 9.2 for AMD64, and installed libmp3lame and -devel from some mandrake rpms I found on Sourceforge.net . . . 
Help! :)
