use.desc gives the default USE-description, which says it enables support for reading mp3 files. Hence, (based on what you say) the useflag is incorrect for mplayer, because it can *always* read mp3-files. mplayer should not use mp3 USE-flag, because -mp3 to still have a mp3-reading capable player feels quite counter-intuitive. It happens to be that mp3 USE-flag is hooked up to the encode USE-flag -- this is where it no longer has anything to do with the description from use.desc. -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level
