the configure process checks whether the installed libquicktime-version
is recent enough to support all functionalities needed by [pix_record].
this seems to be not the case in debian/stable (if you stick to the
official repositories; the libquicktime-dev package in
debian-multimedia.org seems to be fine)
what you have to do is simply:
- install recent enough packages
- run (in Gem/src)
% ./configure
% make
the crucial line in the configure-output is:
"checking for lqt_open_write... yes"
hope this helps
