I've created an ebuild to emerge the libddmpeg file Ivor Hewitt built (http://www.ivor.it/cle266/). With this library file for XFree you'll be able to use the via hardware mpeg2 decoding chip found on via Epia-M motherboards. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: nothing, it's a new ebuild. Expected Results: it should have been moved into the portage tree. # Copyright 1999-2001 Gentoo Technologies, Inc. # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 # $Header: $ DESCRIPTION="Reverse engineerd VIA hardware mpeg decoder" HOMEPAGE="http://www.ivor.it/cle266" SRC_URI="http://www.ivor.it/cle266/${P}.tgz" SLOT="0" LICENSE="unknown" KEYWORDS="~x86" IUSE="" DEPEND=">=x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-3-r3" RDEPEND="${DEPEND}" src_unpack() { unpack ${A} } src_compile() { cd ${WORKDIR}/libddmpeg/ make || die "compile problem" } src_install() { mkdir -p ${D}/usr/X11R6/lib cp ${WORKDIR}/libddmpeg/libddmpeg.so ${D}/usr/X11R6/lib/libddmpeg.so }
Created attachment 22798 [details] new libddmpeg ebuild file. ivor hewitt's hw via mpeg decoding library
I think it should be placed in media-libs .
Created attachment 22800 [details] libddmpeg-1.4.ebuild update I made a typo .. it stated DEPEND=">=xfree-4.3.0-3-r3" .. it should be: DEPEND=">=xfree-4.3.0-r3"
Created attachment 22987 [details] corrected an issue where DEPEND DEPEND="x11-base/xfree" changed it to DEPEND="virtual/x11" It doesn't matter which xfree is installed, just have it installed.
Created attachment 23256 [details] New release of libddmpeg New release of libddmpeg

Max, this bug seemed to have been ignored and been reassigned to you by Iggy. Already talked to him about it. You've already taken up libddmpeg into the portage tree and 1.6 is already available in the main tree. No need to fix something already fixed ;)
