Bug 224289 – media-video/vlc-0.9.0_alpha20080524 fails to build with USE=altivec

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description SpanKY 2008-05-31 02:10:54 UTC]

if you include altivec.h after stdbool.h, things will fail ... this is the case of vlc and deinterlace.c

moving altivec.h include above the vlc includes (right after config.h), things build just fine

fixed, thanks !

I was wondering why it failed to build on my G5 and couldn't find any reasonable solution... now its fine ;)
