1.25 compile related patches

Post by cbagwell »

Hi All,

I've collected some patches that fix compile issues on Fedora and also improve configure behavior for people distributing binary packages. The patches except for 1 all originate from what the Fedora project distributes although I tweaked them were I thought would improve chances of being incorporated upstream.

What is the best way to get these patches reviewed and included in official SVN? Should I post the patches to forum?

For now, you can review the patches and even comment on them at my github zoneminder repo and the 'bagwell' branch. The forum won't let me post URL so please go to github and search for user cbagwell to find my zoneminder repo.

Patches to review:

3f69532 Ignore libjpeg warnings about extraneous bytes
c06a010 rerun autoreconf for recent changes.
65979f8 Skip ffmpeg checks with --without-ffmpeg option
2c540a8 Remove unneeded requirement on gnutls-openssl.
86e57b7 Remove unused ZM_SSL_LIB value
b83c250 Use ffmpeg header checks to disable code.
76105bf Add headers needed to compile with gcc47
4f80ba1 Install DB files and run from install location.
2e0fb5f Add additional $DESTDIR support for install targer

p.s. The 1st patch above is not related to compile improvements. Its a patch that ignores the libjpeg warning message about extraneous bytes that flood the logs and bring ZM to a crawl with Foscam IP cameras and clones. I hope this can be commited as well but it can be discussed in its own thread if thats better.

Hi cbagwell

I also have warning message about extraneous bytes from my Wanscam cameras.

I have used your IPCAM command script. Read about it in the wiki.
http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Wanscam

I have found some things that you might want to change in your wiki:
---
Control Device: user=admin&pwd=pass
Control Address: x.x.x.x:yy

Control Device: Empty
Control Address: admin:pass@x.x.x.x:yy (user:password@IP:Port)

This change gets rid of error message "user=admin&pwd=pass no such file or directory"
