Didn't find 'avformat_open_input' Ubuntu

Created by: katrinabrock

   We didn't find `avformat_open_input` in the libraries.
    We look for it only as a sanity check to make sure the build
    process is working as expected. It is not, so we must abort.

    Please open a ticket at https://github.com/mikeboers/PyAV/issues
    with the folowing information:

EDIT by @mikeboers: down the page I wrote:

I'm pretty sure there there is some sort of compilation error that arises during linking to the static library vs the dynamic ones. The "fix", I believe, is to discuss this in the error message, and expose a flag so that you can try again and print out all of the compiler errors.
