Started Kino, wanted to create a VCD for Claudia from one of her tapes. It seems that every single time I do this, something has changed. Maybe I should just have created a DVD instead of a VCD. Anyway, K3b required tools I did not have...
First I had to get VCDImager. It wouldn’t configure because I also need libcdio. Gah! Got libcdio 0.76, compiled, installed using `make install prefix=/usr/local/stow/libcdio`. I had to `rm /usr/local/stow/libcdio/info/dir` before I could `stow libcdio` from my stow directory. (I added the only entry from that dir file to _usr_local/info/dir, of course.)
Problem not solved:
checking for libcdio >= 0.72... Package libcdio was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libcdio.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libcdio' found configure: error: Required libcdio library not found. Please get libcdio from http://www.gnu.org/software/libcdio/ and install it.
Grrrr! > ?
I’m rerunning `make install prefix=/usr/local/stow/libcdio` for libcdio again and finding the following: `libtool: install: error: cannot install`libiso9660.la’ to a directory not ending in _usr_local/lib`
Ah... No stow for this sucker, eh?
Ok, will use a simple `make install`.
And back to VCDImager. “No package ’libcdio’ found”. Again!? That’s right. Use `PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./configure`

A gazillion error messages follow.
WTF – where did the cdio directory disappear to? It turns out that the previous stow failure had left a symbolic link in _usr_local/include which did not get overwritten by the next install. The sadness.
I feel so tired.
Now the simple `make` for VCDImager works, `make install prefix=/usr/local/stow/vcdimager` works, a message tells me to run `libtool --finish /usr/local/lib`, and it seems I’m set.
Of course I first forgot to rerun stow, which means that no binaries were on my PATH, and then I noticed another conflict for the dir file which I had to resolve.
At last, I could ask K3b to “Create New Video CD Project”.
