           Summary: Using --disable-external causes configure to fail
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.x
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-good
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: pkj at axis.com

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
If I use the configure option --disable-external the configuration fails.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run configure --disable-external

Actual results:
The configuration fails with the following message:

configure: error: conditional "USE_AALIB" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.


Expected results:
The configuration should succeed.


Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
The problem is caused by the test for $BUILD_EXTERNAL on line 425 of
configure.ac which surrounds some of the AM_CONDITIONAL(). This is not allowed,
since AM_CONDITIONAL() may not be used conditionally itself.
