Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-multimedia (Nobody) <multimedia@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 293736: multimedia/mpv: Disable YTDLP option by default https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=293736 --- Description --- The www/yt-dlp dependency now requires npm and deno as dependencies (via www/py-yt-dlp-ejs). This pulls in a bunch of dependencies which are now necessary to build multimedia/mpv with the default config that were not necessary previously. This can increase build times significantly. Therefore, make the YTDLP option opt-in instead. Disabling the YTDLP option by default is just my personal preference, happy to hear other opinions on this.
