Bug 218088 – Prepare media-plugins/alsa-plugins apps to use newer ffmpeg

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ben de Groot (RETIRED) 2008-04-17 12:57:01 UTC]

FFmpeg recently changed all the include paths. Every application using it
should update. Make sure the applications build against currently hardmasked media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326.

Alsa herd:
media-plugins/alsa-plugins

But broken again in 1.0.16 and new 1.0.17 by today's updates.

I'm reopening this, as quite a few users run into this issue. Preferably at least the most recent ~arch version (1.0.17 at this point) should be patched to work with newer ffmpeg.

ffmpeg? ( <=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326 )
works fine for me

[Comment 6 Jeff Mitchell 2008-08-05 17:47:56 UTC]

The problem I ran into was that the dependency seemed to have been changed in the stable non-arch 1.0.16 ebuild without bumping it to a -r version.  This caused emerge to fail, but an equery showed that I should have been fine, probably because it was using dependency info from the old cached 1.0.16 ebuild.

I'd like to recommend 1.0.16 stable be bumped to a -r version to keep anyone else from bumping into this.

[Comment 7 Ben de Groot (RETIRED) 2008-08-05 19:07:19 UTC]

Petteri, the ChangeLog says you disabled newer ffmpeg for 1.0.16. I'm wondering in which way it does not work?

patch to accept new ffmpeg layout

Just to be annoying:
with this patch it seems to build just fine
with the new header layout.
No clue if it actually works,
but `ldd -r` doesn't complain,
so it should be OK.

Sorry, missed a52 in the first one.

Patch after 1.0.17-automagic

(In reply to comment #10)
Your patch interferes with alsa-plugins-1.0.17-automagic.patch.
This one here takes care of that if applied after the automagic one.

[Comment 12 Ben de Groot (RETIRED) 2008-08-06 22:39:52 UTC]

Thanks for your contributions. Patch is applied to 1.0.17-r1.

[Comment 13 Jeff Mitchell 2008-08-07 01:35:14 UTC]

This is not fixed.  You didn't address comment #6, which was reported in bug 233975 and (perhaps wrongly) marked as a duplicate of this one.
