Description
ffmpeg apparently requires libsdl2 +x11. If +x11 is not default, then ffmpeg and any port depending on it cannot build by default on user systems, nor on the buildbot.
---> Computing dependencies for ffmpeg ---> Fetching archive for ffmpeg Error: Failed to archivefetch ffmpeg: libsdl2 must be installed with +x11.

Oh. Well +x11 was a default variant of ffmpeg, so that was preserved on my system. But that's fine, I'd rather not have the +x11 variant if I don't have to, so I'll reinstall ffmpeg without x11.

I made the change because the libsdl2 default seemed to make more sense and this change allows the ffmpeg build to succeed without some manual intervention. But I wasn't comfortable with forcing -x11 if +x11 was previously selected.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using

In the latest release of ffmpeg, +x11 is no longer a default variant, precisely to match libsdl2. So I'd leave it alone for now. Just use install on latest ffmpeg rather than upgrade.
