Smplayer Does Not Depend on MPV

[BlindRepublic]

Is this a new report?

Yes

System Info

Void 5.19.17_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate FFFFFF

Package(s) Affected

smplayer-22.7.0_1, mpv-0.34.1_2

Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

No response

Expected behaviour

The package installs mpv, a runtime dependency in order to actually play videos with the application.

Actual behaviour

mpv is not installed and attempting to play a video results in an error.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install smplayer
2. Launch smplayer
3. Open a video file with the application

Closing for the same reason as #40457: we don't have a good mechanism to support optional dependencies, and neither mplayer and mpv is really a hard dependency on its own.
