Description Joseph S. Atkinson 2008-08-22 06:00:12 UTC
Remove dependency (and usage of) net/openslp from multimedia/vlc. Support for OpenSLP was added to VLC in 2003. Was set for FreeBSD's build via KNOB (defaulted on) by ahze@ almost 4 years ago. When VLC moved to OPTIONS, it was left out of the list, but still defaulted on do to the ".if !defined(WITHOUT_SLP)" stanza being left in.

VLC expunged support for OpenSLP in 2005.

Also, offer to take maintainership at least until VLC moves to Qt. funman@videolan.org has indicated via irc that he no longer uses FreeBSD or works with VLC and was actively seeking a new maintainer.

Fix: Remove the lingering references to OpenSLP.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/ports/multimedia/vlc && make install

Acknowledged.

By the way VLC (stable) will likely move to Qt in 2 days, release
tarballs would follow shortly, but I doubt that would make any
difference in the maintainer's job, multimedia/vlc-devel should be
renamed to multimedia/vlc "out-of-the-box".
