It would seem that you have a prioritized list of options on which graphics |
| 15 |
library we should use. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I would suggest that the ebuild goes through that list in prioritized order, |
| 18 |
checks which are installed, and if none, have a fallback in place. |

SDL as a fallback on X is okay. |

Same thing with sound. |

If, for some reason, this turnes out to be impossible, you must at least |
| 25 |
make a note in post_install() about the fact that the user himself needs to |
| 26 |
customize the /etc/mplayer.conf file. |
