mplayer and xmms

2007-06-13 Thread Chad Perrin
I'm just generally curious about why XMMS is a dependency for MPlayer in
FreeBSD.  I accidentally uninstalled MPlayer by uninstalling XMMS, and am
right now in the middle of reinstalling it from ports -- and it occurs to
me that, as far as I'm aware, MPlayer doesn't in and of itself actually
need XMMS.  Have things changed since the last time I ran a box with
MPlayer but no XMMS?

I doesn't depend on XMMS by default. You must have checked the XMMS
plugin support option in the MPlayer port options menu.

Hello Chad,

That dependency is optional in mplayer:

  .if defined(WITH_XMMS)
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--enable-xmms
  LIB_DEPENDS+=   xmms.4:${PORTSDIR}/multimedia/xmms
  .else
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--disable-xmms
  .endif

It should be sufficient to turn off Enable XMMS plugin support with
'make config'.

Thanks much.  I forgot all about having done that back when I first
installed MPlayer.
