Fixing it to check only one use flag at a time, however, is a horrible idea because it risks telling the user to recompile mplayer four times each adding another use flag. There really is no reason not to just show the full list of required flags if one of them is missing but if you really want to at least move the die out of the loop. -- Bo Andresen
