faac 1.24-r1 has the libmp4v2 support removed. Now that libmp4v2 is in a separate package, the circular dep has been broken. so you can add it back depending on libmp4v2 .. I've done quick testing and it seems to work ok

sorry for the repost, but it's better readable that way:

Please fix this I had to downgrade to convert my music using grip.

On both AMD64 and x86, with libmp4v2 installed faac-1.24-r1 does not provide MP4 support but faac-1.24 does.

For me, support is listed in 'faac --help', but the '-w' option causes the error "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'MP4Error*'".

This occurs with all combinations of faac-1.24 with mp4-support (libmp4v2-1.4.1 or faad2-2.0-r3).

I also have an older system on which faac with mp4-support works correctly, so after reading a lot of related stuff, i'm wondering if the version of libtool used might be responsible; built with libtool-1.5.18 works, built with 1.5.22 doesn't.

I hope support for the stand-alone libmp4v2 package can be resolved for me, as it is mandatory for any metadata-tag manipulation in created files...

ebuild with mp4 support

here is an ebuild for faac that depends on libmp4v2... we could also have a mp4 use flag (but I was too lazy to add a local flag)... what do you think ?

Gah, I'm not sure why I overseen this bug up to now. Will add a -r3 with libmp4v2 support back in.

Committed now, without arm, mips and ppc-macos keywords tho.
