That was my thought. I'm already on it! I've successfully got freevo up and running (without smpeg). Now I'm starting the endless configuration stage. I just did a search of the Freevo-devel archives, and on 2006-10-09 in a thread titled "Re: Numeric or numpy", this was found: "Evan Hisey" wrote: > Duncan,Dischi- > On the subject of dead or dieing dependencies, What is smpeg used > for?

We only need image and ttf support from SDL. In 2.0 we will use much more current stuff: evas, imlib2, libxine, gstreamer. Dischi Isn't this "proof" that smpeg is NOT required? From Dischi himself. Since freevo only needs SDL_image and SDL_ttf (maybe SDL_mixer and PIL?) someone really needs to update the dependency page. It would also be great if, during that update, each package has a description of what functionality it performs. I'd update the wiki, but I'm not sure how to go about determining the dependencies. If it's as simple as asking on the freevo-devel list, and then posting the responses, then no problem. Otherwise, I need suggestions. > Good luck with the garage. Thanks! It's all up and standing.
