35 I'm not so sure. I have a second system with the same (USE) flags
36 set, and mythtv installs but vlc fails without the GL error:
37
38 make[2]: Entering directory`/var/tmp/portage/vlc-0.8.1-r1/work/vlc-0.8.1/mozilla'
39 usr/bin/xpidl -I/usr/share/idl/mozilla \

41 -m header -o vlcintf ./vlcintf.idl
42 make[2]: /usr/bin/xpidl: Command not found
43 make[2]: *** [vlcintf.h] Error 127
44 make[2]: Leaving directory var/tmp/portage/vlc-0.8.1-r1/work/vlc-0.8.1/mozilla'

50 On system 1 having a problem with 'GL' I ran revdep a month or so ago
51 and I've had minor problems with several packages. Nothing very
52 memorable but the running of revdep is the only significant difference
53 in the 2 systems.
54
55
56 On system 2 where mythtv works, vlc fails, it's unable to find:
57 usr/bin/xpidl: Command not found
58
59 Not sure what the problem really is as vlc fails for 2 different
60 reasons on 2 different systems.
61
62 Ideas?
