Description Chris Smith 2004-04-21 13:55:59 UTC
xanim 2.80.2-r4 comes with loadable codecs placed in /usr/lib/xanim/mods/ .
They have names like xa*.o.

These must be for an older version of xanim.  Current ones have names
like vid*.xa.

With the old ones, as installed by emerge, you get this error

I said x86, but it's probably all architectures.
