Patch against ebuild

Weston has a --enable-vaapi-recorder configure option that we are not making use of and so the feature is being picked up automagically. I tripped up over this while cross-compiling. The attached patch adds the vaapi USE flag and what I believe is the appropriate dependency. The [drm?] part was added because it looks for libva-drm as well as libva but you may want to look into this further as I haven't tested this feature myself.

Seems to be in weston-1.6.1 too.
Comment 2 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2015-02-21 21:27:59 UTC
It looks like it's used for screen capture. Is this useful to you?

(I see a lot of feature requests for things people have just spotted in ./configure --help output but don't actually have any idea what the thing does or what they'd use it for)
Comment 3 James Le Cuirot gentoo-dev 2015-02-21 21:39:44 UTC
Not to me but this still needs taking care of, even if it's just a case of always giving --disable-vaapi-recorder.
