xine-lib backport problems.
Finally xine-lib migrated to debian/etch, making it a candidate for
backporting. Yay!
I just wanted to update the xine-lib package in backports.org, but
identified that 2 libraries in bpo are too old for xine-lib_1.1.2-6
- ffmepeg. The well known problem. there is an ffmpeg in backports.org,
but I highly suspect it to be too old. I see 2 options to solve that:
* update ffmpeg in bpo.
* compile against internal ffmpeg
- libcaca. Has undergone an API update, needed therefore updated
automake snippets. I see 2 options:
* update libcaca in bpo.
* bake out the changes from xine-lib_1.1.2-6 for the updated libcaca
Before doing the work several time, I'd like to hear the opinions on
fellow backports users and developers.
