Description
I am preparing to take over maintenance of the mythtv packages for my distribution (Arch Linux), which until now have used the --enable-ffmpeg switch. I encountered some errors while building, so I thought I'd forward the fixes here. Turns out the --enable-ffmpeg switch isn't needed anyway (I think... please let me know if that isn't the case), but just in case someone wants to use it, this might save them some work.
There might be a cleaner solution than what I've done, but I'll leave that up to you. The two problems were that SRC_DIR was being used incorrectly in the FFmpeg makefile, so it didn't find any ffpreset files and so $(INSTALL) $(DATA_FILES) failed with a syntax error. The other issue is that FFMPEG_VERSION was being set to "SOURCE_VERSION="0.24rc1"", which caused some syntax errors in the FFmpeg source code.

--enable--ffmpeg isn't part of out ./configure --help output. Sounds like whoever had the packages before you got too clever for his or her own good, and decided to start enabling options from the portion of the configure script we inherit from ffmpeg. That switch is not (and won't be) supported.
