ffmpeg-2.6.3 does not build with --enable-libfdk-aac

When using ./configure with options including --enable-libfdk-aac as directed in instructions, it fails, complaining that libfdk_aac is missing. The option and the file are still included in the configure script, but missing from the directory tree.

I built successfully a few weeks ago with whatever was the current version at that time. (Sorry, I've reinstalled from scratch and don't know what version that was.)

This looks like a problem in the ffmpeg build, but thought I would check here in case something needs to change in the MakeMKV build procedures.

Resolved by installing package libfdk-aac-dev. Took a while to figure this out, since it was not necessary the first time around. Evidently this package had already been installed as a dependency by something else I had done. After a fresh install of Kodibuntu, with less experimentation in the process, it was missing.
