Description

ext/sidplay/meson.build:27:11: ERROR: C++ header 'sidplay/player.h' not found

A full log can be found at /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/gst-plugins-ugly-1.26.10/work/gst-plugins-ugly-1.26.10-build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt
WARNING: Running the setup command as `meson [options]` instead of `meson setup [options]` is ambiguous and deprecated.
 * ERROR: media-libs/gst-plugins-ugly-1.26.10::media-kit failed (configure phase):

The file sidplay/player.h is no more available in the our media-libs/libsidplay-2.1.1 or media-libs/libsidplayfp.

It's better drop the USE sidplay and eventually check extra Gstreamer plugins compilable with updated Sidplay libraries.

Research direction

Start with ext/sidplay/meson.build:27 and the reported media-libs/gst-plugins-ugly configure failure, then inspect how the sidplay USE option selects this plugin. Done means removing or updating that option as appropriate and confirming the package configures with the available libsidplay libraries.
