Attempting to install ffmpeg on a fresh system fails when computing dependencies:

Computing dependencies for ffmpeg Error: Internal error: port lookup failed: too many nested evaluations (infinite loop?)

Change History

I installed dependencies until I found the infinite loop:

xorg-libX11 -> xorg-libxcb -> xorg-xcb-proto -> python26 -> tk -> Xft2 -> xrender -> xorg-libX11

Installing python26 with the +no_tkinter broke the infinite loop and allowed me to install ffmpeg.
