This post is about the experience to compile OpenCV on Ubuntu 14.04. It was quite hard to find the correct information and dependencies to make the project, and the following error might be happened:
| /usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: /usr/local/lib/libavcodec.a(avpacket.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1′ can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/local/lib/libavcodec.a: error adding symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [lib/libopencv_videoio.so.3.0.0] Error 1 make[1]: *** [modules/videoio/CMakeFiles/opencv_videoio.dir/all] Error 2 |

Here are the steps to fix the problem for compiling OpenCV:
# Removing any pre-installed ffmpeg and x264
sudo apt-get -qq remove x264 libx264-dev ffmpeg
sudo apt-get --purge remove libav-tools
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
# Install dependencies
sudo apt-get -qq install libopencv-dev build-essential checkinstall cmake pkg-config yasm libjpeg-dev libjasper-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libdc1394-22-dev libxine-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev libv4l-dev python-dev python-numpy libtbb-dev libqt4-dev libgtk2.0-dev libfaac-dev libmp3lame-dev libopencore-amrnb-dev libopencore-amrwb-dev libtheora-dev libvorbis-dev libxvidcore-dev x264 v4l-utils
# Install ffmpeg
git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git ffmpeg
cd ffmpeg
