Thanks a lot! This worked for me, but I had to do some more digging as I
am a newbie with this depth/amount of RPM manipulation. I found the x264
spec file, and after updating that line, I did a "-ba" recompile of that
file. Did the ffmpeg, gpac, and then commented out that line, and
another -ba recompile of x264 and everything seems to have lived nicely.
I don't know if this is the right list or anything, but the last PPC
repo was for F12. Should we bring it back? Like I said, I don't want to
send this machine packing just yet... even if Apple has. If anyone is
interested, please email back; otherwise I'll just post the ppc64
packages on my server for download.
My specs are:
processor : 0

you need bootstrap x264 [1]
x264.spec enable global bootstrap (%global _with_bootstrap 1) and
build x264
build ffmpeg
build gpac
disable x264 bootstrap (#global _with_bootstrap 1) , and build x264,
this is just need for /usr/bin/x264
