[Comment 1 Ken Smith 2004-06-26 11:59:24 UTC]

Mplayer only fails when compiled with the use flag "encode", so if you're really dead set on using the new headers, you can still emerge it with USE="-encode".

Mythfrontend (and presumably mythtv) also fail to compile against 2.6.7.

[Comment 2 Jonathan Heaney 2004-06-26 12:22:28 UTC]

Encoding is more important than 2.6.7 headers so I will stick with 2.6.6-r1.

I'm also having some xine problems which I'm pretty sure are 2.6.7 header related.

I'm having the same error here:

[Comment 5 Jonathan Heaney 2004-07-03 18:05:53 UTC]

mplayer compiles & runs OK now here with linux-headers-2.6.7-r1

[Comment 6 Derryth 2004-07-11 07:12:27 UTC]

Also compiles & runs fine here with linux26-headers-2.6.7-r1.

[Comment 7 Benjamin Martin 2004-07-15 00:03:39 UTC]

mplayer compiled fine using the linux26-headers-2.6.7-r1. Using the 2.6.7-r2 headers the same problem occurs again.

[Comment 8 Chris White (RETIRED) 2004-08-17 23:35:43 UTC]

This was fixed in -r3 I believe.  Latest is -r4.  Closing.
