Description tt_1 2020-07-03 12:10:40 UTC

I haven't tested it yet at runtime, but it seems to be a bit of a nobrainer to me that the plugins can only be copied from /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/gmp-gmpopenh264 if they actually exist.

Comment 1 tt_1 2020-07-03 16:36:37 UTC

the firefox config scripts don't seem to check for the openh264 libs, so I guess this is a runtime dependency only. In this case, please move openh264 to BDEPS once the ebuild is updated to eapi7, thanks :)

No, BDEPEND would be wrong. RDEPEND is correct. But you are right, I missed USE=plugin.
