Trying to install supertux, I have found that it requires (indirectly via sdl-mixer) libmikmod while I've already chosen to use modplug instead. As SDL provides abstraction layer, I don't understand why supertux should depend on concrete library instead of generic ability. I think the useflag requirement should be changed to "mod", which then forces either of "mikmod" or "modplug" to be chosen but doesn't dictate which one. Trying to replace "mikmod" with "mod" in the ebuild and having "modplug" enabled for sdl-mixer, supertux installs and runs without problems, and it doesn't seem that any music/sounds would be missing in the game. Reproducible: Always
the dep is already: media-libs/sdl-mixer[mod,vorbis]
Unless http://sources.gentoo.org is more out of date than it's supposed to be, it's still 'media-libs/sdl-mixer[mikmod,vorbis]'.
heh. I wonder how long that's been sitting there uncommitted. Fixed. Thanks for the bug report.
