Description Maurice van der Pot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

svgalib is a dependency of vlc, but even though I have the
svga use flag defined, svgalib is not automatically installed.

When I tried to install vlc, compilation of svgalib.c (iirc) 
failed because of undefined symbols. After manually emerging
svgalib, the emerge of vlc succeeded.


(never mind the linebreaks I inserted in the output below)

Yup, it's pretty obviously missing an svgalib dep.
I made the fix in the tree to vlc-0.7.1.
I'm closing this bug. Could you emerge both vlc and svgalib 
and then remerge vlc? If it doesn't work for you, please
re-open this bug. Thanks.

The fix is ok. Thanx!
