  • Previously, the wez AtomicParsley fork was packaged in Gentoo as media-video/atomicparsley-wez. This fork is now packaged as media-video/atomicparsley, so users of the fork's package should now depclean it: # emerge --ask --depclean media-video/atomicparsley-wez All AtomicParsley users should upgrade to the latest version, which is a packaging of the wez AtomicParsley fork: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose >=media-video/atomicparsley-0.9.6_p20210715_p151551
