Errors

Post by MakOwner »

Desktop Linux Mint 21.1 MATE installing 1.17.3.

running configure on the OSS package throws a lot of errors -- some samples follow.
Is this just normal, or should I be concerned?

Read the text closely, those are not errors, they are warnings.

If MakeMKV is working then you have nothing to worry about.

The warning about av_init_packet being deprecated should be taken seriously. That API will be removed sooner or later.

The warning is just that, and with the deprecated functions the developers need to fix the code.
Users cannot fix that unless they are also programmers and dig deep into the code. If they do that then patches should be submitted to MakeMKV developers as suggested fixes for those warnings.

It is the compiler & linker that gives those warnings.
