As you see, smpeg depends (hard, irrefutable dependency, not optional)
on libsdl, in a version equal to or greater than 1.2.0 (I use 1.2.8, as
you can also see).
What is the status of libsdl on your box? Is it installed? If so, what
version?
It appears that either an incorrect version is installed, or the
installed version is broken (if it was not installed at all, smpeg would
have installed it before installing itself, so clearly there is some
reason that Portage thinks it didn't have to).
HTH,
Holly
