I had to drop ~ppc64 and ~alpha from the latest version I'm going to add because those arches seems not to have mozilla-firefox keyworded, and I'm going to use that for nsplugin support (or seamonkey with seamonkey useflag enabled). If it's possible to you to keyword mozilla-firefox and then re-add the keyword to vlc it would be appreciated. Thanks, Diego
You might want to CC: ppc64@ rather than us then ;)
Alpha is having some toolchain issues with firefox-1.5. When compiled with gcc-3.4 (which is the current stable and testing version on alpha) we end up with a binary that doesn't work and uses 100% CPU. The work around is to compile firefox with gcc-3.3.2. gcc-4.1.1 has been reported to work too, but it isn't ~alpha yet. Once gcc-4.1.1 hits ~alpha we should be able to re-keyword firefox and then vlc.
we are not able to keyword firefox on ppc64. see bug #101821. would it be possible to not have the nsplugin installed on ppc64? There is no way to mask a useflag on a per package basis, is there?
Nop there isn't, I've already asked that to portage devs and I'm told it'll have to wait for 2.2 to be ready.
*Updating title* after last time better if I'm precise..

added ~ppc64 to vlc 0.8.6
Closing down, this was fixed for security already.
