I've been having a hell of a time getting VLC to compile.  I've used
the ./configure options above (with the correct path for my ffmpeg
tree) but get the following error:


checking mpeg2dec/mpeg2.h usability... no
checking mpeg2dec/mpeg2.h presence... no
checking for mpeg2dec/mpeg2.h... no
configure: error: Could not find libmpeg2 on your system: you may get
it from http://libmpeg2.sf.net/ (you need the cvs version).
Alternatively you can use --disable-libmpeg2 to disable the libmpeg2
plugin.

I can swear I have libmpeg2 on my system ... 

[root at localhost vlc-0.8.1]# rpm -qa mpeg2dec
mpeg2dec-0.4.0-5b.1.fc2.rf

I am under the assumption that the mpeg2dec package gives libmpeg2

[root at localhost vlc-0.8.1]# locate libmpeg2.so.0
/usr/lib/libmpeg2.so.0
/usr/lib/libmpeg2.so.0.0.0

I've tried to define a path to libmpeg2...

Can anyone help out this compiling newbie?  Do I even need it, or can
I throw it out in the configure line...?

Egads, I'd love to use MythstreamTV.
