Build fails with error: checking for libavcodec >= 57.16.0 libavutil >= 52.0.0... no configure: error: Requested 'libavcodec >= 57.16.0' but version of libavcodec is 56.1.0. Pass --disable-avcodec to ignore this error. I have libav and avcodec USE flags enabled. I've tried unmask media-video/libav, containing /usr/lib64/libavcodec.so -> libavcodec.so.56.1.0 (currently media-video/libav-11.8) + dependent packages and then I was able to build the package.
