Description Aaron Binns 2007-08-12 23:29:38 UTC
I have an AMD x86-64 system and I recently emerged media-video/dvd-slideshow-0.7.5.

Since I already had mplayer and some related packages installed, dvd-slideshow only required a few additional dependencies.

When running dvd-slideshow and using -mp2 to use MP2 audio rather than AC3 audio, I ran into a missing dependency: sys-devel/bc

On line 1981 of the dvd-slideshow script, it calls 'bc' to calculate the length of the audio file.  I didn't have 'bc' installed on my system, so it failed.

I emerged sys-devel/bc and then dvd-slideshow worked as expected.

So, I guess adding sys-devel/bc as a dependency is needed.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Remove sys-devel/bc if you already have it on your system.
2.Use -mp2 flag with dvd-slideshow to use MP2 audio rather than AC3.
3.Notice error message complaining that 'bc' cannot be found.

On line 1981 of the dvd-slideshow script, it calls 'bc' to calculate the length of the audio file.

I didn't have sys-devel/bc installed on my system when I emerged dvd-slideshow.  Since it didn't have sys-devel/bc as a dependency, it was not emerged, thus no 'bc' executable and dvd-slideshow fails.

Actual Results:  
dvd-slideshow emitted error message that 'bc' cannot be found.

Expected Results:  
I expected it to generate the audio in MP2 format and successfully create the DVD.
