Building against specific version [Solved]

Question

Hi!
Me and many others have been having huge performance issues with libjpeg7 and backdrops/fanart in xbmc-svn. To fix this problem I need to recompile the xbmc-svn package against libjpeg6. I'm really finding this difficult. Can someone help me out? If I have libjpeg7 installed while compiling the build insist on using libjpeg7 (even though I've got libjpeg6 installed from the AUR). If I delete libjpeg7 (and only have libjpeg6 installed) the compiling fails with error 'missing jpeglib.h'. How am I supposed to get the build to use libjpeg6? As you can see in the PKGBUILD I've tried to put in 'CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/libjpeg6" || return 1' and I've changed the dependency from 'libjpeg' to libjpeg6. Still it won't work.
Here's the PKGBUILD I'm using:

I have done the hard work for you. My HTPC is pretty barebones so it was relatively easy to roll back all the packages that depend on libjpeg>7 with older versions. I then compiled the xbmc-svn package using that system. Slow downs are gone and I have uploaded the package to hotfile here:
http://hotfile.com/dl/13546051/021f9c9/ … ar.gz.html
This is for 32-bit. You will need the libjpeg6 package from AUR installed. I have tested it on two systems, my main system which has both libjpeg7 and the AUR libjpeg6 installed and on my htpc which has only the libjpeg6 along with the rolled back dependancies. Works good on both systems.
Hope that helps!

Thanks ould!! You got it working with libjpeg6 again!
I had to upgrade libcdio again so now I lost dvd support. It's not easy to use the svn version.
If you could compile the build against libcdio 0.80 I'd be forever grateful... If you've got the time.
