Subject: Re: amaroK
On the subject of configure options, I updated xine today anyway, since my
xinelib install was out-of-date. Here are the configuration options Portage
used for my USE flags, which enable all codecs:

"/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.5/work/xine-lib-1.1.5/configure
--prefix=/usr --host=i586-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man

You probably only need the things that start with "--with" or "--enable",
and some of the directories are probably different on your system. You'll
have to investigate those yourself.
