The question remains: why does vlc wants to compile seamonkey/firefox? If it *really* needs a browser, isn't the -bin version enough? It's the exact same problem as in bug 180403: emerging quodlibet wanted to install mozilla-firefox. I traced the dependencies until I found that dev-python/gnome-python-extras is the atom that wants to pull mozilla-firefox. I edited the ebuild (and the Manifest) of gnome-python-extras and I could install quodlibet without mozilla-firefox, and it works OK.

If it > *really* needs a browser, isn't the -bin version enough? vlc (or whatever else) doesn't want to compile firefox, it needs files provided by firefox *only* (not by -bin) to compile *itself*, it doesn't want it as a *browser*.

Ok, I see what you say now, thanks for the clarification.
What is so hard to undestand is: why the heck does a media player (such as vlc or quodlibet) needs files provided by a browser?

Because it provides a browser plugin? *** Bug 181119 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 183026 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 187715 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 190876 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 196228 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 196228 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 209687 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 281805 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 281807 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
