I'm not sure who could find the time to prepare an ebuild in a relatively short
time. If somebody could, I guess we can test it and probably add to portage.

Don't hold your breath in the mean time.

No activity in one year. If you are still interested in this, attach an ebuild.
There are over 2000 bugs filed for new ebuilds, if you want something in
portage, at least attempt an ebuild.

I've written one:

[Comment 7 Sergey 'L29Ah' Alirzaev 2009-04-16 10:50:03 UTC]

But it doesn't work. Looks like mplayerxp has strange, prefix-dependent linking, so such errors occur:

codec_ld: Can't load library: '/var/tmp/paludis/media-video-mplayerxp-0.7.2/image//lib/codecs/libnuppelvideo.so' due: /var/tmp/paludis/media-video-mplayerxp-0.7.2/image//lib/codecs/libnuppelvideo.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I don't know how to solve that. ldd says nothing.

[Comment 8 Thomas Raschbacher 2010-09-07 14:02:57 UTC]

fyi: MPlayerXP-0.7.96 has been released 

[Comment 9 dE 2010-09-16 06:34:41 UTC]

Interesting. I'll attach an ebuild soon (i.e. if it builds).

[Comment 10 dE 2010-09-18 02:04:36 UTC]

Yup, it has a horrible build system...

[Comment 11 dE 2010-09-18 02:13:24 UTC]

Created attachment 247744 [details]
See if you can fix... It does not work.

[Comment 12 Nikoli 2012-10-07 01:46:46 UTC]

I think this bug should be closed as obsolete.

Let's do that. If anyone is still interested in this, they should get it into sunrise overlay.
