The LAME package contains an MP3 encoder and optionally, an MP3 frame analyzer. This is useful for creating and analyzing compressed audio files.

Prevent the source code directory from being mistakenly hardcoded as a shared library search path in the installed programs:
sed -i -e 's/^\(\s*hardcode_libdir_flag_spec\s*=\).*/\1/' configure
Install LAME by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-mp3rtp --disable-static && make
To test the results, issue: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libmp3lame/.libs make test.
Now, as the root user:
make pkghtmldir=/usr/share/doc/lame-3.100 install
--enable-mp3rtp: This
switch enables building the encode-to-RTP program.
--disable-static: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--enable-nasm: This option enables the
use of NASM-3.01 to compile optimized assembly routines
for 32-bit x86. Note that this has no effect on x86_64.
