emerge --info

I installed both kdenlive and frei0r-plugins but at startup kdenlive tells me that it cannot find frei0r effects.

[ebuild   R    ] kde-apps/kdenlive-17.12.0:5::gentoo  USE="handbook semantic-desktop -debug -freesound -gles2 -jogshuttle -v4l"
[ebuild   R    ] media-plugins/frei0r-plugins-1.6.1::gentoo  USE="facedetect scale0tilt -doc"

$ equery u mlt
Comment 3 John Dallahan 2017-12-31 15:09:14 UTC
Thanks, I didn't know that required a USE flag. Maybe add a USE dependency to mlt on frei0r-plugins install? I can't be the only person who got stumped on this.
Comment 4 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2017-12-31 15:13:32 UTC
No, that would be backwards. media-libs/mlt[frei0r] is pulling in media-plugins/frei0r-plugins.

Hmm... but that use flag isn't enabled by default. Then maybe add a post-install message telling people to enable media-libs/mlt[frei0r] if they want to use frei0r-effects with Kdenlive?
