Adding "virtual/ffmpeg threads" to your /etc/portage/package.use should fix it.
You point out what should have been obvious to me. Added the use flag to package.use and all is well. Thanks for your time and gracious response, it is appreciated, and please close the bug.
We're in a transition phase where some packages have been changed to depend on virtual/ffmpeg, while others still depend on media-video/ffmpeg. So maybe this blocker isn't so obvious. Anyway, it's a configuration problem. Therefore closing as invalid.
This is really really non-obvious. In my case it doesn’t even display the libav or virtual/ffmpeg in the “emerge -auDNtv world”. AlsoIt just states that virtual/ffmpeg wants libav, but libav blocks ffmpeg. Why the hell would a package block itself? Unmerging ffmpeg does not help. Apparently disabling theora for ffmpeg does fix things. But why?? It makes absolutely 100% no sense. It’s just maintainers throwing us into a mess again, expecting us to read their minds and figure it out on our own. Guys, eselect news in there *for a reason*. Use it.
(In reply to comment #4) > Anyway, it's a configuration problem. Therefore closing as invalid. Wow… just wow… because that is definitely solving the problem. For all users. Automated. And in the future too. Riight… That’s what we get, for allowing to treat a computer like a appliance. They forget that a computer is there to automate problems away. Not to create them.
Still invalid (IMHO), but I'm reassigning this bug to ffmpeg maintainers. @ssuominen, maybe you could comment?
(In reply to comment #7) > Still invalid (IMHO), but I'm reassigning this bug to ffmpeg maintainers. > @ssuominen, maybe you could comment? Seems like a enhancement request for dev-portage@ for better output to me.
