Hi all,
The mad use flag which enables use of the media-sound/mad mpeg decoder is
currently local to the app-games/scummvm package. kde-base/arts (in its cvs
state anyway) can also optionally use mad - right now the dep is always
enabled. Other packages will likely make use of the flag in the future. I
propose to make the mad use flag global and use it in the arts ebuild, and
will do so unless someone objects.

Well, that being the only reaction I got, I'll make the mad flag global (and
use it in the arts package) unless there are objections posted RSN.

Now that we have a global mad use flag, how about making it on by default? Or
would linking it to media-sound/mad be enough? Opinions?
Also, how do I go about getting the various profiles (make.defaults or use.
defaults) changed? I probably shouldn't commit to profiles I don't use; mad
has sparc/alpha/ppc stable keywords (in addition to x86), could the people
for those archs please make the necessary changes (once it's decided what the
changes should be)?

No, it should be on per default, not merely linked to media-sound/mad,
since more and more software goes over to using libmad for its mp3
decoding purpouse (in favour of mpg123 library support) to have it
off-per-default would render a desktop machine rather hard to use.

Fine by me. So sparc/alpha/ppc devs, please update your profiles. I will
update x86-default-1.4 make.defaults now.
