Hello,

I've been directed here from the bugzilla:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D410585
I will copy my bug report from there, so no need to click :)

Currently there are two different flags which pull the same
library (media-libs/libvpx) for the same purpose.

vpx : Enables vp8 codec support using libvpx, required to play some
HTML5 videos

webm: Use system media-libs/libvpx for HTML5 WebM video
support.

Generally webm is somewhat wider term than vp8 (see e.g. here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebM), but in all ebuilds I have checked
webm USE flag just pulls the vp8 implementation library - libvpx.

I am not 100% sure, but to me it seems like webm and vpx USE flags
should be unified.
