acctually so the debs stay the same, fink needs to have a virtual pkg for altivec and then have a lame-altivec version which would depend on altivec and would could then use -faltivec...

I disagree. First off, -faltivec does *not* automatically make the code use altivec. So adding it in fact does *nothing* unless your code contains altivec instructions.


And properly written Altivec should always be written such that it automatically switches to using non-altivec code if altivec is not present. That's how I do it in my projects. And apparently that's how Alexander would do it, should he get to submitting his Altivec code to the lame folks.


like i did with ffmpeg, but with ffmpeg I forced it on, not really great but since there is no way to detect altivec yet... anyhow just my 2 cents, not to mention -faltivec from my understanding only affects .s files (asm)...

-faltivec only affects files using the vector extension to C.


does lame even have altivec code?

Not AFAIK.
