Conversely if optional packages are not available at build time, vlc will generally continue to build with a reduced feature set. -Support for OpenCV is supported using either the "default" opencv -package or the opencv-legacy package (version 3.1.0) from SBo. Either -package will be detected and used if already installed. If opencv support -is not wanted despite the presence of opencv or opencv-legacy, it can be -explicitly disabled by setting the the OPENCV environment variable -to "no" e.g. - OPENCV=no sh vlc.SlackBuild - Support for Wayland is a special case. It is not supported by default but can be enabled setting the WAYLAND environment variable to "yes" when running the SlackBuild e.g. WAYLAND=yes sh vlc.SlackBuild -This support also requires additional SBo packages wayland-egl and -wayland-protocols. It also depends on the qt5 package having been -built with wayland support i.e. wayland package was installed when the -qt5 package was built. By default, the vlc runtime is not able to be run as root. This security feature may be side stepped by building vlc with the RUNASROOT environment variable set e.g. RUNASROOT=yes sh vlc.SlackBuild -Some versions of the automatically deteced optional libaom package are -incompatible with this version of vlc (the build will fail with an -incompatible libaom). Such an incompatible libaom may be ignored -during building by setting the LIBAOM environmant variable to "no" -e.g. - LIBAOM=no sh vlc.SlackBuild - -Please advise the maintainer to suggest support for any further options. - - -*NOTES* -- the qt4 interface seems not to be working ATM so the qt5 one is - enabled by default: this means qt5 is a new mandatory dependency -- you *need* to version-bump the libva and libva-intel-driver in - Slackware to versions 1.7.3 for VAAPI support: as we suppose - a standard install, "--enable-libva=no" is added between the - configure options, instead +Playing of AV1 encoded video is supported when either of SBo's +multimedia/aom or libraries/dav1d packages is detected when vlc +is built.
