Description Ben de Groot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

FFmpeg recently changed all the include paths. Every application using it
should update. Make sure the applications build against currently hardmasked media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326.

sci-* apps with rdep on ffmpeg:
sci-geosciences/grass
sci-visualization/paraview

Hi Ben,

sci-visualization/paraview currently does not use 
ffmpeg. I will probably enable it in the future
as soon as paraview's upstream has stopped
depending on long gone ffmpeg API functions ;)

Best,
Markus

Just updated grass-6.2.3 for the new ffmpeg; now it depends on the new version, while the stable grass depends on the old.  What's the timeline for unmasking the new ffmpeg?

newer ffmpeg will be unmasked either today or next week, depending on what I find now that still needs fixing...
