Bug 294287 – media-video/ffmpeg2theora-0.25 requires media-video/ffmpeg-0.5_p20373

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Arne Babenhauserheide 2009-11-23 19:48:55 UTC]

Building with USE="-x264" worked: USE="-x264" emerge -u ffmpeg2theora

Rebuilding with USE=x264 also worked. 

Before doing the "remerge without x264, remerge with x264" dance it didn't work: 

gcc -o ffmpeg2theora -Wl,-O1 src/theorautils.o src/avinfo.o src/ffmpeg2theora.o src/subtitles.o src/iso639.o -lvorbisenc -lvorbis -lm -ltheoraenc -ltheoradec -lavcodec -lavformat -lavdevice -lpostproc -lswscale -loggkate -lkate -logg

scons: *** [ffmpeg2theora] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.


Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
require up to date x264 up front.

[Comment 1 Dror Levin (RETIRED) 2009-11-23 20:08:42 UTC]

ffmpeg2theora doesn't have x264 USE flag, nor does it use and/or link with it. Anyway, I updated the ffmpeg dep, which should do the trick. Please reopen if it doesn't.

Thanks for reporting :)
