Description Laurence Withers 2008-07-21 20:57:55 UTC

I ran an "emerge -uavD world". media-video/mplayer is being upgraded to 1.0-rc2_p27120 but configure hangs:

[snip...]
Checking for gethostbyname2 ... yes
Checking for GUI ... no
Checking for iconv program ...

I attach an excerpt from pstree -apl, emerge --info etc.

Please let me know if anything further is required.

You don't seem to have USE=nls, and it looks like amd64/2008.0 defaults to that, while media-video/mplayer perhaps expects or requires it.

The mplayer ebuilds used to have IUSE=nls and now they don't. And default-linux/amd64/ still has USE=nls (in its make.defaults) but default/linux/amd64/ does not.

Should be fixed in upstream SVN r27343

Considering that 1.0_rc2_p28058-r1 is stable now, I think this bug can be resolved.
