cmake cannot find ffmpeg and unittest++

Trying to compile libopenshot on slackware64-current.

ffmpeg and unittest++ are installed

Why the unittest failure occurs I cannot understand....

With respect to ffmpeg, libopenshot does not work with that at all:

It looks libopenshot needs libavresample but that is no longer part of ffmpeg but of libav, forked from ffmpeg which seem to be incompatible packages nowadays; see

http://blog.pkh.me/p/13-the-ffmpeg-libav-situation.html#content

libav is available for slackware but the latest ffmpeg is needed for many other programs....

Is there a way to make openshot less dependent on one of the two to keep it usable for the whole linux community?

And if not, can it be clearly stated that libav is a dependency and NOT ffmpeg???

That will save a lot of trouble to other people who else will be wasting their time trying to compile and use openshot-qt.

Thanks,

Rob

Thus, trying to compile libopenshot I get this:

bash-4.3# cmake ../
