>Description:
When attempting to play a video via mpv using the libcaca video option via `mpv --vo=caca <url>`, I receive the following message:
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) mpv --vo=caca <url>
I don't receive this message with the same video when using either the default or tct video output options, so this issue seems specific to the --vo=caca.
libcaca support must be explicitly enabled before building mpv by adding the following to mk.conf:
PKG_OPTIONS.mpv = caca
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to play a video with mpv while using the `--vo-caca` option, ensuring that mpv is built with libcaca support.
