Bug 223587 – media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26753-r1 could offer dxr3 USE flag

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Roy Bamford 2008-05-25 17:48:30 UTC]

mplayer looks for linux/em8300.h during configure and returns error: linux/em8300.h: No such file or directory.
So its looking for a file belonging to the dxr3 driver.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge media-video/em8300-modules gets  media-video/em8300-modules-0.16.4-r1
2.emerge media-video/em8300-libraries gets  media-video/em8300-libraries-0.16.4
3.emerge =mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26753-r1 

Shows
Checking for NAS ... no
Checking for DXR2 ... no
Checking for DXR3/H+ ... no
Checking for IVTV TV-Out (pre linux-2.6.24) ... no

Actual Results:  
dxr3 support is missing from mplayer

Expected Results:  
mplayer supports the dxr3 card and works flawlessly.

equery belongs em8300  shows the file is not provided in the driver or libraries.

The Xorg issue mentioned is not relevant. Thats another problem for me.
You don't need the hardware to reproduce this bug.

So should this be an enhancement like USE=dxr3? Also, the Summary doesn't reflect this, but suggests that mplayer's configure ought to automagically detect dxr3 header files (which it shouldn't).

Might as well add a dxr2 use flag at the same time.

Fixed in mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26753-r2
