MythTV will not configure due to issues with TagLib

[ramccor@…]

taglib requres libstdc++ but doesnt show it in the taglib-config --libs output, so the configure script fails to detect it properly.

[ramccor@…]

I should state that I have ONLY verified that the information above is correct for the Fedora builds. I dont have any other distros to validate against. However, adding -lstdc++ to the check_lib_cpp line for taglib corrected the detect issue for me and had no other build issues.

Can you please paste the last 20 or 30 lines from the config.ep of a failed run of configure? I'd like to see what the actual error is.

[ramccor@…]

Do you still require it? Your part3 change now corrects it for me.

The Fedora buildbots are happy now thanks so it's not necessary but it would still be useful to see what the error was because the clang and icc buildbots are failing in a similar way and probably need a similar fix. I don't have access to any of the buildbots so can't get the config.ep to see what the problem is.

Config.ep for ubuntu on ticket #11511

I submitted 11511 for Ubuntu 13.04. Adding --extra-libs=-lstdc++ to configure works around the problem.

This should be fixed now.

The clang buildbot was failing because TagLib was not installed.

The icc buildbot was failing because of an upstream bug documented here ​https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139190

Since you request what the system previously did, I undid the your addition of -lstdc++ and it yielded very similar results to the ubuntu output...

Yeah thanks it looks like the same problem. I think we've beaten it into submission :)
