Well if not ffmpeg than one of the other ton of libs mplayer package on Fedora anyway is built to want, from a look on Fedora mplayer, aac stuffs that I also mentioned. | You might have | something else installed on the same box that required the v4 ones too, | so the /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 type thing is needed for same library / | different arch coexistence on one system. It is like the i386 / x86_64 | multiarch situation. | |> As Harald, Graeme and I said before: no, it's not like that Can you spell it out for this idiot WHY it isn't like that? It's not like that because we can't handle parallel install of same lib of different arch? Or we can handle it fine already? How? Just telling me I am wrong and OE is perfect is not really advancing my or anyone else's understanding of the situation. | Like I said I am sure all of this can be handled, but I am equally sure | it isn't going to "just work" without care taken in the toolchain and | distro ends, and it's the kind of thing that needs to be right from the | start. | |> It already "Just Works(TM)" in OE and Angstrom, so no problem there. |> There *might* be problems when people want to build *packages* only |> using the toolchain, but those people get what they asked for. They "asked for" an easy way to build packages... if it is broken for this usage we need to take the steps to fix it. I really don't think cutting and pasting your explanation for why it is broken -- "you people are getting what you asked for" -- will go down well with the customers. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkj3SUwACgkQOjLpvpq7dMrd1gCeMXATl+nk7Mdywfci0GwVMXPg +VQAnRnpdhsc/GBUB8ZVjzBEixfCoViQ =gdKd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
