www-client/chromium ("www-client/chromium" is blocking www-plugins/gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.3-r1)

I've got gecko-mediaplayer Latest version installed: 1.0.3-r1

I do believe Firefox need gecko and I'd like to keep firefox and chromium.

I need a bit of advice here. Do I need to one shot gecko?
Remove gecko then emerge chromium or visa-vera?

Today I have installed www-client/chromium-12.0.742.60 with no problems and I have these installed, too:

Code:
[I] www-plugins/gecko-mediaplayer
     Available versions:  1.0.0 ~1.0.3-r1 {curl gnome}
     Installed versions:  1.0.0(10:58:31 AM 04/20/2011)(gnome)
     Homepage:            http://code.google.com/p/gecko-mediaplayer/
     Description:         A browser plugin that uses GNOME MPlayer

[I] www-plugins/mozplugger
     Available versions:  (~)1.13.2 (~)1.14.0-r1 (~)1.14.2
     Installed versions:  1.14.2(03:04:43 PM 04/01/2011)
     Homepage:            http://mozplugger.mozdev.org/
     Description:         Configurable browser plugin to launch streaming media players.


So obviously it is possible to install chromium-12 alongside gecko-mediaplayer and mozplugger. Maybe you can try the stable 1.0.0 version of gecko-mediaplayer which I have installed.

I digged a little deeper into this and I think I found the reason for your problem:

The gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.3-r1.ebuild contains this:

Code:
RDEPEND=">=dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.92
        >=dev-libs/glib-2.26:2
        dev-libs/nspr
        >=media-video/gnome-mplayer-1.0.3-r2[dbus]
        >=net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2:1.9
        curl? ( net-misc/curl )
        !www-client/chromium"


The last line says all: You cannot install gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.3-r1 when chromium is installed. Obviously there must be some incompatibility which the package maintainer has found and therefore is blocking chromium. This is not true for the gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.0.ebuild. So that is the reason why you cannot install the two packages at the same time. And I am pretty sure that you can install chromium and gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.0 at the same time because this is what I have done.

So looking at your package.keywords I think you should just remove this line:

Code:
<www-plugins/gecko-mediaplayer-9999 -curl


and the problem should be gone (as long as you can live with gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.0).

Ahh. I need to read! 1.0.0 not 1.0.3.

I'll try 1.0.9

This is again bothering us as new version of gecko-mediaplayer doesn't have mask.

I was just wondering that firstly shouldn't the mask be other way around as I have understood that the bug is on chromium side? And could chromium be patched to so that it doesn't even try to use this plug-in? There was some kind of blacklist on chromium side, so if it compiles, but doesn't use the plug-in then everything should be okay also.

At the moment this means that I'll have remove one of the programs, and as I'm using mostly firefox and opera, it will be chromium (chromium takes anyway quite long to compile).

I just enjoy watching the development of chromium especially the video.
http://craigcoleman.com/vision/
I'm using the <video> tag on this page along with a ogv file.
I have no problem removing gecko then moving it back after an update world. Here's my update script.

azzerare ~ # more azzerare-sync-emerge-world-script.sh
eselect python set 1;
emerge --sync;
emerge -C gecko-mediaplayer;
emerge -uDva world;
emerge ="gecko-mediaplayer-1.0.0"
eselect python set 2;
azzerare ~ #

I just tried to install gecko-mediaplayer, having chromium (13.0.782.215) installed, and was told there's a block. I don't quite understand what has been discussed in this thread (except that there's a block and it must be for a good reason), or if there are any hints here for me (I looked into mozplugger, but it's masked, as I try to run stable).

Is there any news on this issue?

Thanks.

Thanks...... it seems you work around the problem by installing 1.0.0, but I would like to find a way to run latest (1.0.3) if possible.

good luck. I like testing Chromium. So I'll stick with 1.0.0 until Chromium is fully developed.
If you really want 1.0.3 emerge -C chromium. do a emerge -pv chromium first though
