Description Benjamin Rich 2004-04-20 00:59:55 UTC

When you upgrade libdv from version 0.101 or 0.99 to 0.102, it removes the library /usr/lib/libdv.so.2 (required for ripping and transcoding by dvd::rip), and replaces it with the newer /usr/lib/libdv.so.4.0.0 et al. The ebuilds for the package dvdrip-0.50.16 and .18 don't check, however, to see if <=libdv-0.101 is installed - and so you can independently upgrade libdv with consequences that dvd::rip will no longer work.

The ebuilds for dvd::rip need to check for libdv-0.101

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. upgrade libdv to version 0.102
2. compile mplayer against it - look, mplayer works fine!
3. run, or even recompile, dvdrip: it won't work anymore, because it needs libdv.so.2 regardless

Actual Results:  
dvd::rip can't rip or transcode anything anymore.

Expected Results:  
dvd::rip should adapt to the new libdv v4 library, expecially if you recompile
it against it, but it seems to not have support for it yet.

This still an issue with the latest unstable dvdrip?
