I'm using xmms for my mp3 player and trying to build the modplugxmms
plugin.
The whole build is something I'm not used to, as it's using the libtool
constructs (which I know nothing about), which is what complains when
I add libgcc to the mix (though I must admit to hacking around the
makefile without really knowing what I'm doing).
When I don't add -lstdc++, when I run, it tells me that cerr is not
a defined function.
This is rather confusing.
If I sent you some output, would that help?
Thanks,
Ben
