Last time i tried, dvdrip worked with transcode 1 (at least the |
| 10 |
unstable version of dvdrip), |
| 11 |
furthermore there are only 9 bugs against the package: |
| 12 |
- 2 are version bumps request |
| 13 |
- if you remove the version bump and a dependency fix, there are no |
| 14 |
bugs against the latest version (in ~arch) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Moreover the package is still maintained upstream (last release 30 |
| 17 |
october 2005). |

So please consider keeping dvdrip in portage. |
