Description Peter Beutner 2006-07-17 04:26:52 UTC

Why are there two flags to do one thing (enabling support for aac files)?

It does only work anyways if you enable both of them, because 'aac' pulls in media-libs/faad2 and 'faad' enables the compilation of faad2 support in gpac.

Also on the topic of USE flags (but not related to aac/faad, so I can create a new bug if necessary):

USE="js" emerge gpac doesn't pull in dev-lang/spidermonkey and without it compilation fails:

!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.

Manually emerging spidermonkey fixes the problem.

Also, should "js" be called "javascript"?  There's already a USE flag called "javascript".

Fixed, now uses aac USE flag everywhere.
