Not able to build static build on amazon linux 2023

[dhruv-nudge]

I followed all the required steps and was able to build on my mac, but when I tried on amazon linux 2, I was not able to.

I am getting this error

i have already ran these commands in ext dir

./aom.cmd
./libyuv.cmd
./libsharpyuv.cmd
./libjpeg.cmd
./zlibpng.cmd

Hi @dhruv-nudge,

Your cmake command line looks correct. I just repeated your steps in a version of Debian Linux. I can't reproduce the cmake errors. I tested the tip of the main branch of libavif.

What version of libavif are you using?

What is the output of cmake --version?

Note: Unrelated to your cmake problem: I recommend running the ./dav1d.cmd command in the ext directory and adding -DAVIF_CODEC_DAV1D=LOCAL to your cmake command line. The dav1d AV1 decoder is faster than the AV1 decoder in libaom.

hey I am using 1.0.3 like in README

cmake version 3.22.2

when runngin ./libyuv.cmd, I am getting this in logs

-- Could NOT find JPEG (missing: JPEG_LIBRARY JPEG_INCLUDE_DIR) 

and I get this when I run ./libsharpyuv.cmd

do we need to install more libraries before following all the steps?

I tried with version 1.0.4 of libavif as well in ubuntu 22, but still getting errors

-- libavif: libyuv not found; libyuv-based fast paths disabled.
-- libavif: libsharpyuv not found
-- libavif: Enabling warnings for GCC

Thanks for the libavif versions. With version 1.0.x, you need to use the old-style options to enable libaom, libyuv, etc. The README file you read is apparently from the tip of the main branch, so it describes the new-style options. This unfortunate discrepancy will be fixed when we create the 1.1.0 release.

When using version 1.0.x, change

-DAVIF_CODEC_AOM=LOCAL -DAVIF_LIBYUV=LOCAL -DAVIF_LIBSHARPYUV=LOCAL -DAVIF_JPEG=LOCAL -DAVIF_ZLIBPNG=LOCAL

to

-DAVIF_CODEC_AOM=ON -DAVIF_LOCAL_AOM=ON -DAVIF_LOCAL_LIBYUV=ON -DAVIF_LOCAL_LIBSHARPYUV=ON -DAVIF_LOCAL_JPEG=ON -DAVIF_LOCAL_ZLIBPNG=ON

Note that the old-stype options will continue to be supported for a while.

As for the error (or rather, warning) messages when you ran ./libyuv.cmd and ./libsharpyuv.cmd, those libraries are apparently for optional features in libyuv and libsharpyuv. If those libraries are not installed on your system, the optional features are not built. If you can build libavif successfully, it means libavif does not use those optional features of libyuv and libsharpyuv. In that case you can safely ignore those error messages.

Finally, this error message from ./libsharpyuv.cmd

fatal: destination path 'libwebp' already exists and is not an empty directory.

can be fixed by removing the libwebp directory before you run ./libsharpyuv.cmd again.

@wantehchang thanks a lot, it worked!

[dhruv-nudge]

I also wanted to just confirm are those optional libraries important to convert all kinds of images to avif? I want to convert all formats (png, jpg, giff, webp, tiff and etc) to avif. I will not convert from avif to any other format.

[wantehchang]

Hi @dhruv-nudge

I can only answer the question for libyuv: libavif doesn't use the optional feature of libyuv that requires libjpeg.

The question is harder to answer for libsharpyuv. libsharpyuv is a component of libwebp. I believe we are running the cmake command to configure the enture libwebp, and then only build the libsharpyuv component. Intuitively I would expect that those optional features that require additional libraries to be installed on the system are outside libsharpyuv, but I didn't spend the time verifying that.

[wantehchang]

Also, the avifenc command can only convert PNG and JPEG inputs to AVIF. It cannot convert GIF, WebP, and TIFF to AVIF. I think there is a feature request for avifenc to support additional input image formats. You can look into using ffmpeg or ImageMagick to do that.

Yes, that is true. The support libraries (jpeg, tiff, png, gif) are only used by the examples like cwebp and dwebp.
