<para><command>sed -i '...' configure</command>: The check for the OpenGL
(Mesa) libraries will fail because the proper directory is not included in
the search path. This command fixes the problem.</para>
<para><option>--with-gconf-schema-file-dir=/etc/gnome/gconf/schemas</option>:
Use this option if you have the <application>GNOME-2</application>
<application>GConf</application> package installed.</para>
<para><option>--enable-gdk-pixbuf-loader</option>: Use this option to build
the GDK pixbuf loader module if you have <application>GTK+-2</application>
installed.</para>
<para><option>-enable-xine</option>: Use this option to build the
<application>Xine</application> wrapper module if you have the
<application>Xine Libraries</application> package installed.</para>
<!--
<para><option>-enable-xine</option>: Using this option to build the
<application>Xine</application> wrapper module will break the build if you
have <application>xine-libs</application>-&xine-lib-version;
installed.</para>
-->
<para>Note: all other modules are built if the <command>configure</command>
script discovers the required dependency package. To prevent a module from
being built, pass
<option>--disable-<replaceable>[module]</replaceable></option> to
<command>configure</command>. Run <command>configure --help</command>
for all the available module names.</para>
