I wonder if anyone can help. I'm trying to cross compile madplay-0.15.2b for an arm9 processor running a 2.4.18 kernel. I'm building the source on a redhat9 host. I do the following:

$ ./configure && make && make install

for libmad and libid3tag. Then I try configuring madplay with the following command:

$ RANLIB=arm-linux-ranlib CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --host=arm-linux

and get the following error:

checking mad.h usability... no checking mad.h presence... no checking for mad.h... no configure: error: mad.h was not found *** You must first install libmad before you can build this package.

From your above description it appears you have not cross-compiled libmad. You need to use the same RANLIB, CC, and --host settings when you build libmad and libid3tag (and, potentially, zlib) as when you build madplay.
