FWIW, things get extremely hairy for a multimedia package.
Here's what Gentoo's tooling (equery g --depth=0) has to say about mpv's depgraph:
Code:
[ media-video/mpv-0.32.0-r1 stats: packages (3505), max depth (333) ]
(I omitted the actual output, because that's *a truckload* of packages. Keeping in mind that this is Gentoo, so that's the *full* depgraph, compile-time, run-time, and post-merge, with *every* feature enabled. On a binary distro, it'd be slightly tamer, because you only need the runtime deps, and you basically only care about alsa & mp3 as far as features are concerned).
