Description Danny van Dyk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-29 13:56:21 UTC
The Xv-output driver doesnt get build due to an error in ./configure

>checking for libXv.a location... not found in /usr/X11R6/lib64

A quick solution for me was adding the following line to the ebuild:
use amd64 && myconf="${myconf} --with-xv-path=/usr/X11R6/lib"

I'll attach my ebuild. [This error hasn't occured in any previous version
i tested on amd64, media-libs/xine-lib-1_rc3-r1 is definitely sane !]
