strictly speaking, my program doesn't actually depend on mencoder... it will
puke a ton of error messages when running, but it'll still run... without
mplayer and mencoder it can still provide shell scripts to be run to encode
with the exact options the user requested....i will need to add a little
modification for it to be able to load files without mplayer, besides that it
doesnt really depend on them...
anyway, i think i've goten the hang of this, on wnpp i post an 'RFP:', and
once i've got a ready package (which if noone replies to my 'RFP:', i could
build myself), i post an 'RFS:' on debian-mentors... gonna do so now...
thankyou for all the help, i'll try to restrict my newbie questions to
debian-mentors now :)
