maintainer-feedback requested: [Bug 208185] [multimedia/vlc] Qt5 version is completely broken

[bugzilla-noreply at freebsd.org]

David Chisnall <theraven at FreeBSD.org> has reassigned Bugzilla Automation
<bugzilla at FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to
multimedia at FreeBSD.org:
Bug 208185: [multimedia/vlc] Qt5 version is completely broken
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208185



--- Description ---
With the Qt5 option enabled, vlc:

 - Does not accept mouse input on the image (double clicking to switch between
window and full-screen mode doesn't work, neither does using the mouse for DVD
menu navigation)

 - Crops videos in full-screen mode (see:
https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/16476 )

I spent several hours trying to debug these problems before discovering that
simply replacing the vlc package with vlc-qt4 makes them go away.  The Qt5
option should not have been enabled by default for the package.
