I'M triyng to compile ffmpeg and there is a problem with tmp dir because is mounted with noexec:
./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libvorbis --disable-mmx --enable-shared Unable to create and execute files in /tmp. Set the TMPDIR environment variable to another directory and make sure that it is not mounted noexec. Sanity test failed.
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest version from SVN. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the ffmpeg-user@mplayerhq.hu mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net. Include the log file "config.err" produced by configure as this will help solving the problem.
How to set the TMPDIR environment variable to another directory?
