Description Luca Lesinigo 2009-04-19 09:02:54 UTC

Upgrading from libsndfile-1.0.17-r1 to 1.0.19 introduces new, mandatory, dependencies on libvorbis (and thus libogg too) and makes the once optional dep on flac a mandatory one.

libsndfile's configure script has an option to turn (all of) them off:
  --disable-external-libs disable use of FLAC, Ogg and Vorbis

the ebuild should have a USE flag to trigger that option and avoid linking and depending on those libraries.

Unless I'm looking at the wrong ebuild,
'minimal' useflag does exactly that.
