Bug 29986 – avidemux asks for old divx4linux version

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description crusaderky 2003-09-30 04:53:45 UTC]

avidemux-0.9-r1 asks for divx4linux-20020418-r2, so when I do "emerge -uD world" it downgrades it. However, if I do "emerge -u world" after that, it upgrades it again to 20030428-r1.

Please use avidemux2 if possible.
The <1 series is not maintained any more and the new versions are more stable
and contain new features too.
IMHO avidemux should work with a newer version of divx so the ebuild should
be updated (and we could add some einfo pointing to avidemux2)
Cheers,
Marc

You suggest me updating to avidemux2 (which I've already done), but it's
masked... how about removing the mask and using KEYWORDS="x86"?

Without doing this, when I do "emerge -uD world" it pretends to downgrade
it. And the downgraded version requires the old divx4linux...

Martin committed 2.0.16 one month ago. Perhaps he can comment on this?

[Comment 4 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2003-10-01 07:41:18 UTC]

i'm ready to mark 2.0.x as stable

Ok, then let's close this bug as "wontfix" and martin can remove that ~.
