Description Matthew Thode ( prometheanfire ) archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2012-10-11 03:10:22 UTC
Celt has been merged into the opus codec so we may need to switch to that.
Comment 1 Tiziano Müller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-10-11 05:15:46 UTC
point is: spice depends on an old version of celt since that codec never reached a stable version.
My guess is that upstream will switch to opus. But even then we may want to keep that old version of celt around to support spice-clients from other distros which may still be using celt.

makes sense
Comment 3 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-21 20:41:05 UTC
When upstream changes, we'll change. Until then its a valid depend.
