Description
I know mythmusic does not compile at the moment, but I was trying to do so until I got hit by the output of the ./configure statement that taglib 1.5 is now needed.
Some investigation leads to [21105] where the determination of the taglib version is done.
Since taglib requires cmake as of version 1.5 the win32-packager.pl script was adapted to use pre-compiled binaries (of which the source is clear, but the resposible person is not). These pre-compiled binaries do not include taglib-config and therefore the configure fails either:
- because only taglib 1.5 is installed and therefore taglib-config can not be found
- because of taglib 1.5 might be installed over an older taglib directory, which therefore still has an old version of taglib-config as this is not overwritten.
Attached patch is to overcome this problem, at least on windows.
