mplayer 34426 seems to have changed something related to ASS. I tried rebuilding mplayer myself with --enable-ass-internal but still the result is: Unknown option on the command line: -ass

Manual page stays unchanged:
-ass (FreeType only)
Turn on SSA/ASS subtitle rendering

The actual reason why I am concerned about this is Smplayer being broken on my media server because of this. When SSA/ASS support is enabled error is the same as above, but when it is disabled it stupidly tries to use -noass argument to mplayer which then results in: Unknown option on the command line: -noass



Additional info:
* mplayer 34426
* smplayer 0.6.9
* Logs:
$ mplayer -ass
Unknown option on the command line: -ass
Error parsing option on the command line: -ass

I just noticed mplayer package has switched over to libass from internal support. I will request closure.
