So we need to somehow output 4 different USE-conditional deps. 2. And 4 different REQUIRED_USE blocks. 3. Packages need to require specific versions of libav and ffmpeg, and since both packages have different feature implementation rates there's no way to solve this with single version numbers. So we need to pass both versions to the eclass. 4. Same goes for USE flags. In the end, the eclass would be terribly complex and the ebuild may end up bigger than without it. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
