"libavcodec/x86/mathops.h" has "Error: operand type mismatch for 'shr'" with binutil >= 2.41

[Morikko]

Just tried to build the project on Ubuntu 22.04, it worked but I had to do a few changes:

1. Apply a patch to libavcodec/x86/mathops.h against Error: operand type mismatch for 'shr'

   Patch: https://git.ffmpeg.org/gitweb/ffmpeg.git/commitdiff/effadce6c756247ea8bae32dc13bb3e6f464f0eb
   found from https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=289424

2. Also scons needed the extra libraries: libavcodec-dev and libavformat-dev (False positive, see comment)

Thanks for the info! I think we should provide a Dockerfile for this repository to make the build more reproducible. Unfortunately, due to the older ffmpeg version and the various modifications made to it, it's not that portable.

So I checked — libavcodec-dev and libavformat-dev are definitely not needed as dependencies, as the libraries are already part of the modified ffmpeg source code and should be found by scons relative to the local directory.

I still have to do some tests with the Docker image…

Ah, maybe I saw the missing libraries first when I tried to skip to compile the local ffmepg and rather use the system one. So maybe, it is a false positive. Also, I ended up compiling this project because of itu-t p.1204.3. So, the unsuccessful initial compiling was triggered by it. I am not home now, I will check Monday for a reason for the 1st error.

The patch does not seem to be necessary per my testing with Ubuntu 22.04 in a Dockerfile with the linux/amd64 image.

So the reason of the patch is for:

Fixes assembling with binutil as >= 2.41

https://git.ffmpeg.org/gitweb/ffmpeg.git/commitdiff/effadce6c756247ea8bae32dc13bb3e6f464f0eb

Now, I checked and the system has such version of binutil. However, I am not on Ubuntu 22.04 but 23.10. Sorry, I mixed with another computer. I guess the problem may occur with Ubuntu 24.04 as well (not verified).
