If down the road I realize that I've left out use flag for mplayer would I
have to recompile mplayer?

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

I could make /etc/packages/portage.use something like:
'media-sound/lame-3.96.1'
along with the other flags, and then mplayer would have lame et. al. as
plug-in's, yes?
Or, do I have that wrong? Automagically mplayer will see
'media-sound/lame-3.96.1' and incorporate lame into mplayer? Or, is lame
installed seperately?
'Default USE flags
The current default USE flags for an x86 Linux system:
File: /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.1/make.defaults
...
USE="alsa apm arts avi bitmap-fonts cups eds emboss encode fortran
foomaticdb gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib jpeg kde libg++
libwww mad mikmod motif mp3 mpeg ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pdflib png
qt quicktime sdl spell truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts vorbis X
xml2 xmms xv"'
<http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_USE_Flags>
But, I don't seem to have xmms installed, while I do have totem, so, I'm
not totally understanding the significance of the above list.
As I think about this more, it seems that, for example, I might just
install lame directly with portage. In that case, it'd be up to mplayer
to recognize lame's presence, yes? However, with the use flags, mplayer
is compiled with lame?
However, if another application is *also* installed with lame as a use
flag, that'd be redundant. Or, not? They would both recursively install
lame, with lame known to both mplayer and the second app?
thanks,
Thufir
