Created attachment 455094 [details] build log ../../media/filters/ffmpeg_demuxer.cc:212:15: error: ‘AVStream {aka struct AVStream}’ has no member named ‘codecpar’

@media-video: Can you offer any advice (or even a patch) here? In the mean time, I am changing the dependency to >=media-video/ffmpeg-3.
Likely it broke here. https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/a5a5be6147fa4c83d3010e9ef8c6617e232d9019
(In reply to Mike Gilbert from comment #2) > @media-video: Can you offer any advice (or even a patch) here? I'd say use ->codec instead of ->codecpar with #ifdefery this change might be harder to support in a backward compatible way than what you had posted on -dev some time ago > In the mean time, I am changing the dependency to >=media-video/ffmpeg-3. sounds like the best option for now can you give an estimate on when you want to unmask chromium 56 ? ffmpeg-3 has been masked long enough, not all packages have been ported yet but we cant force maintained packages to remain masked or apply backward compat patches just because of unmaintained ones either...
(In reply to Alexis Ballier from comment #4) > can you give an estimate on when you want to unmask chromium 56 ? We generally unmask versions when they enter upstream's beta release channel. Chrome 55 was just promoted to the stable channel, so Chrome 56 will likely hit the beta channel in the next week or so.

i'm sorry, but this unmask happened only because of chromium-56, which is still masked: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/profiles/package.mask#n364 and ffmmpeg-3 transition is still not complete: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=574788 i don't think it's a good move.
and specifically chromium-56[system-ffmpeg]
(In reply to Oleg from comment #7) > i'm sorry, but this unmask happened only because of chromium-56, which is > still masked: no, the main reason is that the only packages left are unmaintained and we can't wait forever on those
