Masks

  • USE=gui in this version depends on Qt5 and can no longer be supported. VLC-4 snapshots are provided with a Qt6-based USE=gui. Alternatives for stable users are media-video/mpv, media-video/haruna, media-video/smplayer, media-video/qmplay2 and probably many more. Bug #954006. Removal some time after 2026-05-30.
