what is xanim? i googled and found that it plays animation video and audio. the website shows the last release is march of 1999, over 9 years ago. i assume it would be out dated now. is there anything still using that ? if i remove that package and the use flag, would it be missed ?

Might be that there are some packages depending on this xanim to function properly.
If you don't have it yet, install the gentoolkit and run
to figure out if any packages are depending on xanim.

| XAnim is a program for playing a wide variety of animation, video and audio formats under X11. Although it was written mainly for machines running Unix(or a Unix derivative), it can also run on VAX VMS machines and has even been compiled and executed on machines running DOS with the proper X11 library support. |
