Version:           1.0pre1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc-4.1.1 glibc-2.4
OS:                Linux

First of all, I'd like to remark that the INSTALL test file supplied in k3b-1.0pre1 is not updated with the correct deps.

The problem that we have found is the following while running ./configure:

configure: error: Could not find libdvdread. Please install.

In previous versions of k3b this was no requirement. Is libdvdread a mandatory dependency for this version of k3b? Any other dependencies that are not listed?

As far as I know, k3b, if compiled with encode support, that is to say to use transcode, requires transcode itself to have libdvdread support. Digging further, will dvd support be compulsory from now on, or is there a way to prevent the inclusion of dvd features?

Thank you for your time and attention.
