Yes, I have amd64codes installed as dependency of mplayer [2], but I'm pleased with my system now and I don't want to damage mplayer by uninstalling those codecs. On the other hand, of course, I don't want to have problematic packages installed. What should I do in this case? [1]: ====== !!! The following installed packages are masked: - media-libs/amd64codecs-20071007 (masked by: package.mask) /home/portage/profiles/package.mask: # Steve Dibb (5 Nov 2008) # Mask realplayer, real codecs for security, upstream issues, bug 245662 !!!
