[Ffmpeg-devel] bug installing on 64 bit systems

Hello,

I had to alter configure to force:
libdir="/usr/lib64"
instead of 
libdir=""

for x86_64 systems, otherwise extra libraries (like the amr codec and such) isntall in /usr/local/lib.  For some reason trying to use configure to force prefix and lib dirs made more problems than solved.

Thought you'd like to know, I think you can just alter configure to:
case "$cpu" in
  i386|i486|i586|i686|i86pc|BePC)
    cpu="x86"
  ;;
  x86_64|amd64)
    cpu="x86"
   #ADDED THE LINE BELOW TO FIX 64 bit LIB DIR
   libdir="/usr/lib64"

..
..
..


Since I'm not an active dev atm on CVS I didn't update it myself.

Best Regards,
Charles
