It seems that xine-ui is looking for the old alsa-lib version. alsa-[lib|driver]-0.9.0_rc1 are installed. The configure prints out this: checking for AALIB version >= 1.2... no *** The aalib-config|aainfo program installed by AALIB could not be found *** If AALIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in *** your path, or use --with-aalib-prefix to set the prefix *** where AALIB is installed. And the compile fails with this: make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/xine-ui-0.9.10-r1/work/xine-ui-0.9.10/src/dfb' gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../.. -I../.. -I../../readline -I../../readline -I../../src -I../../src -I../../src/common -I../../src/common -I../../src/xitk/xine-toolkit -I../../src/xitk/xine-toolkit -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/directfb -march=i686 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -malign-functions=4 -malign-loops=4 -malign-jumps=4 -malign-functions=4 -mwide-multiply -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -fexpensive-optimizations -fschedule-insns2 -fno-strict-aliasing -ffast-math -funroll-loops -funroll-all-loops -finline-functions -mcpu=i686 -Wall -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include -DFONTDIR=\"/usr/share/xine/skins/../fonts/\" -c options.c In file included from options.c:27: dfb.h:44: aalib.h: No such file or directory options.c: In function `do_command_line': options.c:185: warning: implicit declaration of function `extract_mrls' make[3]: *** [options.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xine-ui-0.9.10-r1/work/xine-ui-0.9.10/src/dfb' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xine-ui-0.9.10-r1/work/xine-ui-0.9.10/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xine-ui-0.9.10-r1/work/xine-ui-0.9.10' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 !!!

Actually, aalib is ASCII Arts lib, not alsa lib. I will look at the xine-ui's new ebuild to see if this exists.
0.9.11 has this as an optional dependency (your USE should contain "aalib") and will emerge the necessary package to satisfy it, should you choose it.
0.9.11 also fails to compile on my system (with the same error like 0.9.10). I hvae tracked it down to the following reason: i have directfb in my use and DirectFB installed. But i don't have aalib installed and not in my USE (and i dont want it their). But xine-ui fails if it trys to compile directfb support without installed aalib. So IMHO the solution should be that if directfb is in USE the aalib have to be in a hard depend. Still a problem case exists if DirectFB is installed and detected by the configure (but not in USE) but the aalib isn't installed. Maybe the directfb test in dconfigure can be disalbed it is not in USE. I will also make an entry to the xine bug tracking, because i think the configure should fail if it detects directfb but no aalib.
Gerk and I were fighting with this today, if directfb is in use then aalib is a dependency of xine, for SOME reason that I am in conversation with the xine developers about. the xine-0.9.12-r1 ebuilds that I'm working on will ensure that they make aalib a dep if aalib || directfb are in USE
until we figure out with the xine folk why this was happening, I am adding directfb? ( media-libs/aalib ) to the ebuild I'll keep an eye on them to fix this in the future though.
