mplayer was for some reason installed on a system which gets transplanted to a new system. installing mplayer-sh fails with 'fowner vdr:vdr' while there is no vdr user. The package clearly depends on vdr-* being installed. But no vdr packages are mentioned in DEPEND/RDEPEND= I suggest to add >=media-video/vdr-1.6.0 A better package name might be media-plugin/vdr-mplayer Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.just emerge mplayer-sh on a system without vdr. 2. 3.

f.y.i. i don't need this module. I just analyzed it's failure. take it or leave it. I don't support, but portage needs some fixing. The Build log HAS BEEN posted, see above. I will post the supporting believe info but beleive it's useless.. Unless you can pinpoint evidence you cannot find in what you got already.........

mplayer-sh was mentioned in a world file. (not sure why, probably this was done a few years ago when mplayer-sh wasn't bound to vdr? anyway nod other VDR stuff was in the world file or intended on the system. The world file was copied from a (i868) system in use to a new virgin stage3 (amd64) system with network configured, and all relevant /etc/portage/packacge.* added. After that emerge -1uDN @world was started to rebuild. This caused some circular dependencies with f.e. around ImageMagick & around SDL which needed an installation of those without some specific flags which caused the circular dependencies. After that an emerge -1uDN @world was done to get everything up to specs. Then it did try to also install the mplayer-sh, which failed in the above way, without resolving the vdr dependencies.
btw. emerge --unmerge mplayer-sh resolved my problem.
