Description Franz Trischberger 2013-08-06 07:01:16 UTC
Even worse, it checks for updates of the windows build.
Nevertheless, there is a build option to enable/disable update checking:
src/smplayer.pro contains "DEFINES += UPDATE_CHECKER"

That's weird, I could swear we used to carry a fix for this package to turn off updates.

I can confirm that smplayer shows the update message even with latest version available in portage.

remove updater

I first tried adding "DEFINES-=UPDATE_CHECKER" to eqmake4 cmdline, but that did not work.

Fixed in smplayer-0.8.5-r1. Thanks for your contribution!
