#17103: MPlayer fix for configure -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: andrea.damore@macports.org | Owner: ecronin@macports.org Type: enhancement | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Resolution: | Keywords: mplayer configure Port: MPlayer | -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Changes (by ecronin@macports.org): * status: new => assigned Comment: Low on time right now but I'll take a look as soon as I can. Where is --enable-freetype deprecated? The problem with not explicitly using --enable or --disable with features is that if the library happens to be detected by configure you end up with an unregistered dependency. If freetype is not needed at all for ttf OSD than that's easy enough to fix. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17103#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#17103: MPlayer fix for configure -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: andrea.damore@macports.org | Owner: ecronin@macports.org Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Resolution: | Keywords: mplayer configure Port: MPlayer | -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment(by andrea.damore@macports.org): My experience: I specified +osd variant but got a build without osd support. [http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer- users/2007-November/070154.html This message] suggests not to use {{{--enable-freetype}}} and the author of that message explictly told me: --enable-freetype doesn't make configure fail when it can't find it (like on autotools), it makes it ignore the test and try to compile it So far I think there have been a problem with the port dependency on freetype but unluckily I dont' have build logs as obviously at the time I didn't knew I was going to have problems. I then built mplayer again without --enable-freetype and osd worked fine. To answer your question: freetype is needed dependency for the osd variant but, from what I read, it should just not be in configure option. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17103#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
