Emerges good with renamed 2.2.9999 ebuild. Things to note: - subslot should be (probably) '5-8', though is libvlccore actually used by anything outside vlc itself ? - '--enable-glx' switch got removed - requires ffmpeg 2.5 (or at least fails to build with 2.2) - dep on media-libs/libdvdnav should probably be equal to media-libs/libdvdread (well, it requires 4.9, but I mean it as a more long term thought) That's about all that I remember.
...yay, I've filed this at about the same time ebuild was added to the tree, therefore adjusting summary

so yes in my case it was about ffmpeg vlc won't pass configuration with media-video/ffmpeg-1.2.6-r1 cose libavutil >= 52.4.0 and libavcodec >= 55.26.0 are required for VDPAU decoding. but will install fine with media-video/ffmpeg-2.5.4 I havn't tested media-video/ffmpeg version in between I belive ebuild should deal with this.
@comments 4, 5 and 6: I wonder why did you use so many words to say "me too" ?
@comment 9 Due to space time distortions I lamentably failed to see "- requires ffmpeg 2.5 (or at least fails to build with 2.2)"
(In reply to Karol Herbst from comment #3) > also qt4/qt5 selection is broken inside vlc. These patches help here: > https://gist.github.com/karolherbst/fb9e3d8f6ba05f1f5d54 Yeah, upstream version of vlc always preprefers qt5 over qt4. There is a bug without much interest from vlc devs. I have even created a patch for this, and your patch seems to be the same. Anyway, I resolved qt version selection in other way - it uses qtchooser to select the proper one. It requires qt-4.8.6-r1 and qt-5.3.1-r1 (or maybe some higher revs) which are the first qtchooser-ready packages. I will have to set these versions as minimal ones. Let me know if you have any problems with qt version selection, but I think that this patch is not needed for vlc ebuilds.
the QT_SELECT thing doesn't work for me. I think this is because the qt automake files are checking against the pkg-config files directly where I don't see why qtchooser should make any difference.

I emerged vlc-2.2.0 with USE="qt4 -qt5" and it linked to qt5 - which is unfortunate because the qt5 UI is apparently buggy (e.g. video output always goes in a separate window). media-video/vlc-2.2.0::gentoo was built with the following: USE="X a52 alsa avahi avcodec avformat bidi cdda cddb dbus dts dvbpsi dvd encode ffmpeg flac fontconfig gcrypt gnome jpeg kate libass libav libnotify libsamplerate libtiger matroska mp3 mpeg musepack ncurses ogg opengl opus png postproc projectm pulseaudio qt4 rtsp sdl shout speex svg swscale taglib theora truetype twolame udev upnp v4l vaapi vcdx vlm vorbis x264 x265 xcb xml xv zvbi -aalib (-altivec) -atmo (-audioqueue) -bluray -chromaprint -dc1394 -debug -directfb (-directx) -dvb (-dxva2) -faad -fdk -fluidsynth -gme -gnutls -growl -httpd -ieee1394 -jack -kde -libcaca -libtar -linsys -lirc -live -lua (-macosx-dialog-provider) (-macosx-eyetv) (-macosx-qtkit) (-macosx-quartztext) (-media-library) -modplug -mtp (-neon) -omxil -opencv -optimisememory -qt5 -rdp -run-as-root -samba -schroedinger -sdl-image -sftp -sid -skins -test -tremor -vdpau -vnc -vpx -wma-fixed" ABI_X86="64" CPU_FLAGS_X86="mmx sse" # scanelf -n /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/gui/libqt4_plugin.so TYPE NEEDED FILE ET_DYN libvlccore.so.8,librt.so.1,libidn.so.11,libpthread.so.0,libdl.so.2,libdbus-1.so.3,libQt5Widgets.so.5,libQt5Gui.so.5,libQt5Core.so.5,libX11.so.6,libstdc++.so.6,libm.so.6,libc.so.6,libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/gui/libqt4_plugin.so

> I emerged vlc-2.2.0 with USE="qt4 -qt5" and it linked to qt5 - which is unfortunate because the qt5 UI is apparently buggy (e.g. video output always goes in a separate window). Would you mind to elaborate on that "separate window" part ? Which qt5 version is installed ? Regardless, as comment 3 and comment 11 state, while qtchooser will still need to be set up properly, the detection itself will require a patch equivalent to the one mentioned will be necessary.

Which qt5 > version is installed ? The UI behaves as if embedded-video=0 was set in vlcrc. (It's not.) In other words, vlc opens two windows: one with the menu and controls and an empty black space in the middle, and a second window with video output. This is with qtgui 4.8.6-r1 and 5.4.1 both installed.
I will have a look on that qt selection issue. It was working for me few months ago for Git version of VLC, but something could have been changed since then. If needed, i will include my old patch ignored by upstream. I had a problem with two separate windows on qt5, when qtx11extras was not installed. It is added to qt5 use flag deps, but you have it disabled. You shouldn't see that effect when using qt5 use flag or when qt4 flag is fixed.

Well, what I can say is that my tree is not quite up to date, so I'm on 5.4.0, but qtx11extras was pulled by vlc ebuild and I didn't see such problem, so that's probably it.

Same here. Karol Herbst's patches (https://gist.github.com/karolherbst/fb9e3d8f6ba05f1f5d54) W4M.
Another question is why I get libqt4_plugin.so in my system even when I have -qt4 -qt5 in my use flags.

(In reply to Panagiotis Christopoulos from comment #20) > Another question is why I get libqt4_plugin.so in my system even when I have > -qt4 -qt5 in my use flags. automagic (if it finds qt4 or qt5 installed it uses it) on a side note, the name is just bad choosen. The qt4 and the qt5 plugins are both called libqt4_plugin.so You could test if my patch changes anything, allthough I didn't consider this use case at all, it might work nethertheless.
also having USE="-qt4 qt5 kde" seems kind of strange. At least vlc doesn't check if kdelibs is there or links against it, so is this dependency really needed?

This package desperately requires a new maintainer. The proxy maintainer his given formal notice of withdrawal. https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=media-video%2Fvlc&list_id=2732630
Hi Karol, the patches you provided (Greg linked to them in post 19) still to work on 2.2.1, and I see Pawel had opened a ticket upstream (https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/11772) a while back but there hasn't been much movement there. Mind if I post the patch upstream to see if we can get some traction? I think your approach makes a lot of sense.

The qt4/qt5 issue still persists, but of the other issues called out in this bug should now be resolved or will be shortly: subslot is now corrected to '5-8' for 2.2.x --enable-glx has been removed from the 2.2.x line libdvdread now requires 4.9 in the ebuild (I believe this was handled by Pawel) ffmpeg-2.2.14+ now works (confirmed with 2.2.14 & 2.2.15 on VLC 2.2.1) and ebuild will be updated to reflect the newer requirements

That's likely the approach we'll take however I was hoping upstream would respond to Pawel's initial ticket/proposal (which is similar although slightly different than what's implemented in the patch). Ideally this is something upstream addresses and then we can backport to match for other 2.2.x versions.
30 Apr 2015; Ian Delaney <idella4@gentoo.org> +files/qt4-select.patch, vlc-2.2.0.ebuild, vlc-2.2.1.ebuild: add patch to address selection of qt4 vs qt5, patch by Karol Herbst, comment 19, bug #541678, tested and endorsed by users and proxy maintainer, limited to versioned ebuilds for now, finally closes said bug Note on closing; dependency.unknown 2 media-video/vlc/vlc-2.1.5-r1.ebuild: DEPEND: media-video/ffmpeg:0=[vaapi], media-video/libav:0=[vaapi] media-video/vlc/vlc-2.1.5-r1.ebuild: RDEPEND: media-video/ffmpeg:0=[vaapi], media-video/libav:0=[vaapi] 2.1.5-r1 is the only stabled version. Once a newer version is stabled this can be purged, 2.1.2 is dependent on the status of alpha
