this is what i get when trying to merge media-libs/libdvdnav-4.1.1: * Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/include/dvdread/nav_read.h * /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_types.h * /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_read.h * /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_print.h * /usr/include/dvdread/dvd_reader.h * /usr/include/dvdread/nav_print.h * /usr/include/dvdread/nav_types.h * /usr/lib64/libdvdread.la * /usr/lib64/libdvdread.so * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop * * media-libs/libdvdread-0.9.7 * /usr/include/dvdread/nav_read.h * /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_types.h * /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_read.h * /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_print.h * /usr/include/dvdread/dvd_reader.h * /usr/include/dvdread/nav_print.h * /usr/include/dvdread/nav_types.h * /usr/lib64/libdvdread.la * /usr/lib64/libdvdread.so
According http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/tech/dvdnav-howto.txt the new version of libdvdnav provides libdvdread as well, so if you use mplayer's libdvdnav I would suggest: 1) emerge -C libdvdnav 2) echo media-libs/libdvdread-0.9.7 >>/etc/portage/profile/package.provided 3) revdep-rebuild -av I'm not sure if everything could be compiles agaings the new version....
Modifying the ebuild to read <RDEPEND="!media-libs/libdvdread"> as in "_NOT_ media-libs/libdvdread" resolves this (on a fresh install, at least)... ...However, if it's desired for 'dvdnav://' functionality in mplayer, you'll lose the use of 'libdvdcss' in the process. I've hacked this ebuild & the mplayer one with just that objective in mind, & there appears to be no way to have both options at once - i'm gonna query this upstream at mplayer shortly... I don't want to attach any patches/ebuilds here, as my modifications were made without consulting any 'ebuild-writing guides' (the wiki-guide i had wasn't there when i looked). Additionally, such a 'blocking-modification' would need to be mirrored in the libdvdread-ebuilds, too, if it were to enter portage.
hello, i cannot install vlc having mplayer installed because of the conflict between libdvdnav and libdvdread. what should i do? emerge -pv vlc These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies waiting for lock on /var/db/.pkg.portage_lockfile ... done!

libdvdnav-4.1.1 was removed from the tree, partially because of the collisions. If you want to install it, it's a blocker to libdvdread. I've setup a personal overlay where you can get it in the meantime if you're interested. http://overlays.gentoo.org/dev/beandog/browser
