Known issue. libiec61883 exists only in a moving SVN repository and isn't in Portage yet. Waiting for something stable to come from them to be able to add it to Portage. Are you capturing over firewire from a cable box? If not you can add into /etc/portage/package.use the following media-tv/mythtv : -ieee1394 Is libiec61883 part of ieee1394 or something else? I am willing to make an ebuild for it. libiec61883 is Subversion only, hosted by the makers of libieee1394. Which is why it's not in portage. It apparently hasn't even hit the stabilization point of 0.1. Unless you can show me that a snapshot is safe enough... it's going to stay out of Portage for now. Eli: Great to see another @ufl.edu e-mail address on here. Comp Engineering or Comp Sci major? Doug, if you don't have this lib in portage, then the dependency tree is broken. Remove the 'iee1394' USE flag and force it off until this package gets in portage. Created attachment 52056 [details]

grrr.. AN EBUILD IS NOT BINARY!!! Don't pick it as such!
Detail what you changed too!
my apologies, I was lazy and told it to autodetect the mime type. Comment has now been edited to specify that the ieee1394 use flag has been removed until the necessary packages are in portage There's a msg to appease some. But it's staying around until we can get the lib in Portage. This will get fixed like I said when the package is available. A message is insufficient. Cardoe, this package is in violation of Gentoo policy. Either add the package mythtv needs or remove the support from the mythtv package for now. Users who have this package on their system can still add the support via ECONF_EXTRA if they so desire, but as it stands, it is in violation of Gentoo policy and must be fixed. if USE=-ieee1394 doesnt work just remove it from the ebuild I removed ieee1394 from the ebuild and bumped the revision for the dst bugfix. |
