The ebuild for mplayer-1.0_rc1 defines the wrong skin directory when it installs the package. Instead of: dodir /usr/share/mplayer/skin cp -r ${WORKDIR}/Blue ${D}/usr/share/mplayer/skin/default || die it should be: dodir /usr/share/mplayer/skins cp -r ${WORKDIR}/Blue ${D}/usr/share/mplayer/skins/default || die The default directory for skins is /usr/share/mplayer/skins. This is not a major problem, but without this fix, if you use gmplayer with the default skin, it will not startup. BR
This bug is valid. Looking at the code (Gui/interface.c): --CUT----------------------------------------------- skinDirInHome=get_path("skins"); skinDirInHome_obsolete=get_path("Skin"); skinMPlayerDir=MPLAYER_DATADIR "/skins"; skinMPlayerDir_obsolete=MPLAYER_DATADIR "/Skin"; --CUT-----------------------------------------------
Created attachment 101899 [details, diff] install skin to correct directory This is the change to the ebuild as a patch.
Fixed, zzam, next time feel free to commit it and/or ping me on irc if I don't reply.
