Description Austen Dicken 2008-06-10 05:14:00 UTC
The latest install of media-libs/libdv-1.0.0 causes the soname of the installed file to change from .so.2 to .so.4, causing mplayer to break when attempting to load the libdv.so.2 library (due to its absence).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install libdv-1.0.0
2.Install mplayer
3.Run mplayer -ac help | grep libdv and check the soname library it is pointing to.
(alternatively attempt to play a raw AC3 file)

Actual Results:  
libdv codec files fail to be supported properly

4. emerge gentoolkit && revdep-rebuild
5. Use mplayer again.
