This would result in a similar mess as we have been dealing with in the ffmpeg / libav situation. Please don't do that. Make the choice explicit, and don't rely on semi-automagic dependency resolution. Also, explain clearly to users what the default implementation is and why. -- Cheers, Ben | yngwin Gentoo developer
