ffmpeg-6.1 just dropped in unstable. When attempting to compile it, I got a failure. After reviewing the output, it said something about ffnvcodec can't be found. This has popped up many times before when searching gentoo forums, bugs, etc. I have an nvidia video card on my system, and I depend upon nvenc/nvdec functions within ffmpeg. I checked out the upstream project and I see that there are 12.0.x.x and 12.1.x.x versions available, but there was also an 11.1.5.3 that was released about 6 months ago. I bumped the ebuild up to 11.1.5.3, installed it, and the compilation worked great. So, this is a bug report with a working fix I think. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge ffmpeg 6.1 with nv-codec-headers 11.1.5.2 installed Actual Results: build fails unable to find ffnvcodec Expected Results: Build complete
#MeToo
I guess we need a version bump on nv-codecs: dilbert ~ # eix nv-codec [I] media-libs/nv-codec-headers Available versions: 11.1.5.1-r1 11.1.5.2 Installed versions: 11.1.5.2(07:45:26 PM 09/11/2023)
This allowed me to build ffmpeg:6 USE=-nvenc emerge -1a ffmpeg
Bump nv-codec-headers to 12.1.14.0, solves the problem.
(In reply to Cyril from comment #4) > Bump nv-codec-headers to 12.1.14.0, solves the problem. i can confirm as well

No need for revbumps, technically this shouldn't be in RDEPEND but not going to re-arrange things more than necessary.
