Hi,
There is no configure, no readme.txt, no install.txt, the make fails, 
the makedoc fails and the debian docs has zero bytes?? How is anybody 
but your hackers supposed to build this thing?

brianp@trex:~/download/mkv.matroska/libmatroska-1.0.0/make/linux$ make -j8
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.1/../../../../lib/libebml.a: could not 
read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libmatroska.so] Error 1

brianp@trex:~/download/mkv.matroska/libmatroska-1.0.0/make$ sh ./makedoc.sh

I am trying to build VLC and it does not like your libraries or something:

vlc-1.0.6: ./configure; make ends with errors:
/usr/bin/ld: 
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.1/../../../../lib/libmatroska.a(KaxAttached.o): 
relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when 
making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.1/../../../../lib/libmatroska.a: could 
not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[6]: *** [libmkv_plugin.la] Error 1
make[6]: Leaving directory 
`/home/brianp/download/vlc/vlc-1.0.6/modules/demux/mkv'
make[5]: *** [all] Error 2

Can you give me any idea as to what is going on here?

Thank you,

    Brian
