I am having to recompile the videolan-client rpm on an x86-64 box, because
I need the --enable-pvr switch added to the ./configure

When I try to recompile it though I at first got an error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11

I guess this was because I didn't install any of the i386 style packages
so my xorg files where in /usr/X11R6/lib64 and not /usr/X11R6/lib
I went into the spec file and took out %{_lib} in the x-libraries option
and put in lib64.  After that the compile moved on.

Now when the build is almost done I am getting this error:

/bin/mv: cannot stat
`/var/tmp/videolan-client-0.8.2-3.2.1.fc4-root/usr/doc/vlc': No such file or directory
(sorry for the line wrap)

Looking in the tree that it leaves there isn't even a doc directory let
alone a doc/vlc directory.

This is really odd to me though since, just yesterday I built this RPM on
an i386 install and it built fine.  Does anyone have any idea what is
going on?
