Hi Felix, I'm Dave;
  I run Epiar under Ubuntu 11.04 (latest distro).  The SDL version number is a problem when using the configuration file.  I keep a file with these steps to allow the make to succeed on Ubuntu:

1) In the file ./Epiar/configure.in

 Comment out the line which checks sdl-mixer version: Use # to make it into a comment

    #PKG_CHECK_MODULES([SDL_mixer], [SDL_mixer >= 1.2.11])


Replace the LIBS line (2 lines below the above commented out line) with:


LIBS="$LIBS -lSDL_mixer"

2) Then open a terminal and change to the Epiar folder;
 cd Epiar

3) execute:
sh
 ./autogen.sh
./configure
make

Check for completion of make without errors

run program: 
./epiar

Hi,

My name is Felix, I'm a programmer with some experience in object 
oriented programming (mostly from school, in Delphi and PHP), and I 
would like to help you develop Epiar (mostly because I see it as a good 
way to properly learn C++ and SDL).

Only problem is i'm currenty struggling to build Epiar (latest Ubuntu, 
plus I'm a Linux noob). I downloaded it via Github and followed the 
instructions, but running configure tells me that sdl_mixer-dev is not 
installed (I double checked it is).
