Hi all,
bugs like [1] makes clear to me that the increasing number of CPU
extensions USE flags is getting more and more confusing.
ffmpeg-0.6_p25767.ebuild : IUSE="+3dnow +3dnowext alsa altivec amr
bindist +bzip2 cpudetection custom-cflags debug dirac doc +encode faac
frei0r gsm +hardcoded-tables ieee1394 jack jpeg2k +mmx +mmxext mp3
network oss pic qt-faststart rtmp schroedinger sdl speex +ssse3
static-libs test theora threads v4l v4l2 vaapi vdpau vorbis vpx X x264
xvid +zlib video_cards_nvidia"
(I am not going to argue here that USE defaults shouldn't be used for
CPU extensions.)
Among all CPU extensions USE flags you'll find:
3dnow
3dnowext
mmx
mmxext
sse
sse2
sse3
sse4
sse4a
sse5
ssse3
I probably missed a few, there.
I think it would look a lot less confusing if, using the example above,
the output of emerge would not look like this:
[ebuild N ] media-video/ffmpeg-0.6_p25767 USE="3dnow 3dnowext
bzip2 encode hardcoded-tables mmx mmxext ssse3 zlib -X -alsa (-altivec)

-theora -threads -v4l -v4l2 -vaapi -vdpau -vorbis -vpx -x264 -xvid"
VIDEO_CARDS="-nvidia" 0 kB
but more like this:

hardcoded-tables zlib -X -alsa (-altivec) -amr -bindist -cpudetection
-custom-cflags -debug -dirac -doc -faac -frei0r -gsm -ieee1394 -jack
