How to build latest ffmpeg for android-ffmpeg project on github

I am working on https://github.com/guardianproject/android-ffmpeg project. In this project, it uses ffmpeg version 0.11.1. How can i build this project with the latest ffmpeg version?

I try to delete ffmpeg folder in this project. Checkout the latest ffmpeg version in url: [git://git.videolan.org/ffmpeg.git]. After that, i ran command ./configure_make_everything.sh as normal but i got error: 

    File to patch: 
Skip this patch? [y] 
Skipping patch.
3 out of 3 hunks ignored

**ERROR: freetype2 not found**

If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from Git.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
[email protected] mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net.
Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.

I got error: Freetype2 not found but if i build with the original ffmpeg include in this project, this error is not occur.

How can i fix it? Please help

This was almost a year ago, so I assume you're not waiting for answers, but I have one. I forked the guardian project and updated the submodule entries.

https://github.com/touchlab/android-ffmpeg

You'll need to hand-edit the ffmpeg/configure according to the notes at the top. Ignore the part about ffmpeg/libavutil/arm/intmath.h.

I've built this with ndk r10c.

I had the same problem when building ffmpeg for a desktop. In my case ffmpeg was looking for the freetype2 headers in /usr/include/freetype instead of /usr/include/freetype2.

This solution is ugly, but I created a symlink

sudo ln -s /usr/include/freetype2/ /usr/include/freetype

Then ./configure was succesfull.

You might be able to achieve the same by patching ffmpeg to replace all instances of

#include <freetype/config/ftheader.h>

with

#include <freetype2/config/ftheader.h>

It looks like this is just in libavfilter/vf_drawtext.c

Since you appear to be building for a different CPU you may need to modify the paths with the proper location for freetype2 for your architecture.
