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"

NAME

       whereis - Locates files for programs

SYNOPSIS

OPTIONS

       The -b, -m, and -s options can be used in combination to restrict the search.  Searches for an executable program.  Searches for the refer-
       ence page for a program.  Searches for the sources of a program.

       Use the -B, -M, and -S options to change or limit the places whereis searches.  Specifies the binary directories to search.  Specifies  the
       reference page directories to search.  Specifies the source directories to search.

       The  other options that can be used with whereis are as follows: Terminates the last directory list and signals the start of program names.
       Used with other options to indicate when there is no file for program in the default or specified directory or directories (source, binary,
       or reference page).

DESCRIPTION

       The  whereis  program  locates source, binary, and reference pages for the specified programs.  When looking for a match, the program names
       are stripped of leading pathname components and any trailing extensions of the form (for example, s.  resulting from the use of the  Source
       Code Control System see sccs(1), are also handled.

       The default directories searched by the whereis command are as follows: /etc /etc/nls /sbin /usr/bin /usr/lbin /usr/lbin/spell /usr/ccs/lib
       /usr/lib /usr/local /usr/hosts /usr/sbin

EXAMPLES

       To find files matching cat in the default source, binary, and reference directories, enter: whereis cat To search for reference	pages  for
       app13  in the directory /usr/local/man, enter: whereis -M /usr/local/man -f -f appl3 To find the programs in /usr/bin that do not have ref-
       erence pages in /usr/share/man/man1 with source files in /usr/src/cmd, enter: whereis -u -M /usr/share/man/man1 
	       -S /usr/src/cmd -f /usr/bin/* To find which files in the current directory either have no reference pages in the default  reference
       directories or have more than one, enter: whereis -m -u *

FILES

       Default binary directories.  Default binary directories.  Default reference directories.  Default source directories.
