That's not ffmpeg, that's someone's script.

Why does it use a not-so-recent version of ffmpeg? Git is recommended
here, and 2.6.2 is latest release.

You need to install librtmp and its development libraries and headers
for the option --enable-librtmp to work. Does the script not do that
for you? Or instruct you to do something?

There's also a "build-librtmp.sh" on that github page, BTW...

You also quoted this as part of the output in your email:

But you didn't do it. Why not? Anyway, the "ERROR" you quoted above
happens to be enough to understand the issue.

Those are the build environments, but have nothing to do with the
missing dependency.

P.S.: Unfortunately, I bothered to look at the script's github page.
Did you read and follow the instruction? Not that I care:
  Just drag the /dependencies/include and /dependencies/lib folders into
  your Xcode project and add them to your build target. If you want to,
  you can modify the build-ffmpeg.sh script to suit your needs and
  recompile.
