This IS fedora missing openh264 code for F40. Pick thé one from f39!

Comment 2 Nicolas Chauvet 2023-11-27 22:18:18 CET

For f39 you need to enable the Cisco repository

Anyway, installed 6.1 from source with no problems whatsoever: 
./configure --prefix=/usr --pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib64/pkgconfig --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --arch=x86_64 --extra-version=-dch --enable-bzlib --enable-fontconfig --enable-gcrypt --enable-gnutls --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libsoxr --enable-libsrt --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-pthreads --disable-debug --enable-avfilter --enable-gpl

Then this is the usual libavcodec-free conflicts:

No need to build your own, it will break applications when we will update to a newer ffmpeg.
