Install package not in repositories so that dpkg knows about it

0

I am trying to compile some software for my raspberry. During the configuration process, the following appears:

configure: error: Requested 'libavcodec >= 55.0.0' but version of libavcodec is 54.35.0.

I have downloaded and compiled the source for ffmpeg, which I think includes that librery, but the error persists.

How can I solve it?

You can use the package equivsto create a pseudo-package, so that dpkg knows about your installed software. See https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-helpers.html
