Today I received the following from my daily emerge --update !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - media-libs/libass-0.9.11 (Change USE: +enca) - media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc4_p20101107 (Change USE: -enca)
The instructions are clear enough, but how do I chose which alternative to apply? In use.local.desc I find for both entries media-libs/libass:enca - Enables support for charset discovery and conversion. So I guess the default is for mplayer to have that support and libass to not have it. But I am not sure what it is. As far as I know I don't have many charsets. My locale.gen is just en_US ISO-8859-1 en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 Any advice as to whether I should enable or disable the support would be appreciated. thanks, allan
