Bug 97449 – mozilla FLAG needed to compile xine with firefox support but it forces mozilla itself to be compiled

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Kamil Gornik 2005-06-30 00:06:56 UTC]

I want mozilla-firefox with xine plugin. To achieve this I have to set mozilla
flag ON. mozilla USE flag makes emerge to emerge mozilla (which I don't want).
When I emerge -DuN world mozilla is emerged. I decided to remove mozilla because
of no future support and switch to firefox and have to choice between mozilla +
mozilla-firefox + xine plugin or mozilla-firefox without plugin
Maybe there should be mozilla-firefox flag added?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.add mozilla to USE flag
2.emerge -DuN world
3.

Actual Results:  
mozilla emerged

Expected Results:  
no mozilla emerged, only xine plugin for mozilla-firefox

Please, could you explain what are you trying to do? Which xine plugin are you
referring to? You mean media-video/gxine? But `USE="mozilla" emerge gxine`
merely compiles the browser plugin there. It definitely does not want to emerge
www-client/mozilla here.
