Bug#729601: RFS: vokoscreen/1.8.1-1 [ITP] -- easy to use screencast creator
Well, ffmpeg was dropped by Debian and the replace is libav (#729147).
Vokoscreen supports avconv since 18.0 version. Thus, I used
libav-tools (avconv) as install dependency and tested it. Worked fine.
However, we may have a user using ffmpeg in the future and vokoscreen
will prefer it.
There are three solutions:
- Made vokoscreen conflictant with ffmpeg. Unstable haven't ffmpeg and
Debian recommends the libav use. If the user installs ffmpeg by hand
(compiling, not a .deb), it will provides all features and voko will
work fine.
- Write something about libav x ffmpeg in README.Debian.
- Ask to upstream to make vokoscreen choose libav instead ffmpeg if both exist.
What is the better solution in your opinion?
