Description Giacomo Perale 2005-07-14 10:00:37 UTC 
The ebuild for MPlayer 1.0 pre7 includes the use-flag "matroska", who, when enabled, set the configure option "--enable-internal-matroska" and requires >=media-libs/libmatroska-0.7.0.

This dependency isn't necessary, because MPlayer has an internal copy of libmatroska and doesn't use the external version. It compiles flawlessy without libmatroska on system and can play mkv files:

Shared libs are preferable.
Comment 2 Giacomo Perale 2005-07-14 12:07:49 UTC 
Yes, I know. Problem is that mplayer can't use anymore shared libmatroska, just
its internal version.
Comment 3 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-14 13:23:37 UTC 
oh, o.k.  */me goes cleaning glasses*
