what i can say is in order to compile gephex, after have installed all 
the dependencies packages , i had to get ffmpeg from the svn 
repository... what i've done (ubuntu dapper) :

darcs get http://darcs.gephex.org/gephex/gephex--main--0.4/
cd gephex--main--0.4/
cd ./contrib
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
cd ..
sh ./bootstrap
./configure
make
make install

and now gephex run well :)
the only problem i had is i wasn't able to install gephex with 
'checkinstall'[1]
and sudo make install breaks at the end, because it wasn't able to 
install doc
(but the programs are well installed)
