DESCRIPTION="Open h.265 video codec implementation"
HOMEPAGE="https://github.com/strukturag/libde265"
# Upstream commit 8b305cb ('remove en265 and dev-tools from distribution
# tarball') strips enc265/ and dev-tools/ from the release tarball. The
# live (git) ebuild fetches the full tree and can therefore expose
# USE=enc265 and USE=tools; the release ebuild's IUSE is the narrower
# buildable subset. Verified 2026-05-26 against v1.1.0.
