Thank you Bakunin.

I have doubt in the flags I set while I compile. For Eg. I compiled an extra library required for ffmpeg (libdc1394) at /usr/local/myapps/lib/libdc1394.so. I then set these ENV variables and compile ffmpeg using the below option.

Code:
LIBS=-L/usr/local/myapps/lib/
export LIBS

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/myapps/lib/pkgconfig/
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH

LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/myapps/lib/
export LDFLAGS

CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/myapps/include/
export CPPFLAGS

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin::/root/bin:/usr/local/myapps/bin
export PATH

FFmpeg compilation.
Code:
./configure  --enable-libdc1394
make
make install

Contents of /usr/local/myapps/lib/pkgconfig/libdc1394-2.pc
Code:
# cat /usr/local/myapps/lib/pkgconfig/libdc1394-2.pc
prefix=/usr/local/myapps
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: libdc1394
Description: 1394-based DC Control Library
Version: 2.1.3
Libs: -L${libdir} -ldc1394
Cflags: -I${includedir}

Ffmpeg binary compiled fine. But when I checked "/usr/local/myapps/bin/ffmpeg -v" with strace, I could find, it not taking the /usr/local/myapps/lib/libdc1394.so. It takes "/usr/lib/libdc1394.so.22". Please see the corresponding line in strace output.

Code:
open("/usr/lib/libdc1394.so.22", O_RDONLY) = 3

I need the /usr/local/myapps/lib/libdc1394.so.22 being used during ffpmeg install. There is NO option like "--enable-libdc1394=/path/to/libdc1394"

SAFE-RM(1)						User Contributed Perl Documentation						SAFE-RM(1)

NAME
safe-rm - wrapper around the rm command to prevent accidental deletions USAGE
safe-rm [ ... ] (same arguments as rm) DESCRIPTION
safe-rm prevents the accidental deletion of important files by replacing rm with a wrapper which checks the given arguments against a configurable blacklist of files and directories which should never be removed. Users who attempt to delete one of these protected files or directories will not be able to do so and will be shown a warning message instead. safe-rm is meant to replace the rm command so you can achieve this by putting a symbolic link with the name "rm" in a directory which sits at the front of your path. For example, given this path: PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin You could create the following symbolic link: ln -s /usr/local/bin/safe-rm /usr/local/bin/rm CONFIGURATION
Protected paths can be set both at the site and user levels. Both of these configuration files can contain a list of important files or directories (one per line): /etc/safe-rm.conf ~/.safe-rm If both of these are empty, a default list of important paths will be used. /usr/lib/* will protect all of the files inside the /usr/lib directory if they are referred to directly, but it will not protect your system against: rm -rf /usr/lib For a full protection, you should include both of these lines: /usr/lib /usr/lib/* EXIT STATUS
Same exit status as the real rm command. Note that if all file arguments are skipped by safe-rm then the exit status will be the same as the exit status of the real rm when no files arguments are present. BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Note that if you put the following in your protected paths list: $ cat /etc/safe-rm.conf /usr/lib Then safe-rm will prevent you from deleting the directory: $ rm -rf /usr/lib Skipping /usr/lib /bin/rm: missing operand Try `/bin/rm --help' for more information. However it cannot protect you from the following: $ cd /usr/lib $ rm -f * AUTHOR
