 |
|
wanting to try vlc's web interface for streaming video I run
into no way to configure the media-library because
the USE flag "media-library" cannot be set (it is
always "(-media-library)" even when I ask nicely
does anyone know what is going on here?
(some other USE flag needed? or some other package?
there is no message generated by emerge)

doing a quick check on my system, I got this:
| Code: |
ct85711@Oate /usr/portage/profiles $ grep -r media-library
use.local.desc:media-video/vlc:media-library - Build the (sqlite based) media library.
base/package.use.mask:# media-library does not build
base/package.use.mask:media-video/vlc media-library
|
This indicates, that USE flag is masked, and devs never bothered to either remove/fix this problem. |

thanks for that; the whole vlc streaming system seems
cumbersome and flaky in any case ...
