Bug 58119 – mplayer 1.0_pre4-r6 and 1.0_pre5-r1 does not detect x11, nor xv during configure

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Rudo Thomas 2004-07-23 13:56:43 UTC]

Latest MPlayer ebuilds successfully complete, but the resulting binary does not have all the output modules compiled in. You can check this by executing:
mplayer -vo help

At least x11 and vo are missing.

The configure script successfully detects X11 libraries and headers, but not X11 itself!?! Here is the output:

Checking for X11 headers presence ... yes (using -I/usr/X11R6/include)
Checking for X11 libs presence ... yes (using /usr/X11R6/lib)
Checking for X11 ... no

Probably it has something to do with the extra patches that are in these ebuilds, as version 1.0_pre4-r4 works fine.

if you append USE="X" to your flags, I'd bet it would work.

Offhand, I'd bet it's disabling X based upon the flag, but not taking into consideration other flags may rely on it.

Err, nevermind, I'm on crack.
Just noticed you have the flag enabled :)

[Comment 3 Brian Harring (RETIRED) 2004-07-23 22:05:14 UTC]

I've gone through and fixed the configure errors that were introduced into -r5; I'll be committing it shortly.
Long story short, --(enable|disable)-x11 was being controlled by the gtk flag only, which is wrong.

[Comment 4 Brian Harring (RETIRED) 2004-07-24 04:46:47 UTC]

Had to nuke these ebuilds due to QA issues; pre4-r7 and pre5-r2 now handle the X/xv/xinerama/gtk flags (and lots of other stuff) correctly.
Please reopen if issues persist.
