Yeah, thanks, but the dvd flag was turned on. Made no difference. I'm
trying to understand the ebuild now. There's a section that says
use xine || G2CONF="${G2CONF} --gstreamer-enable=yes"
but it seems that perhaps it should be written
if use xine; then
G2CONF="${G2CONF] --gstreamer-enable=no"
else
G2CONF="${G2CONF] --gstreamer-enable=yes"
fi
or maybe the first one should be "--gstreamer-disable=yes" -- have to
look at the configure options too.
Soon as I figure out how to produce the checksum file for the ebuilds,
I'll put this to the test.
