chromium (83.0.4103.116-1) and ffmpeg (7:4.3-2)
Hi,
I am here on Debian/testing AMD64.
The last days I tried to upgrade to chromium version 83.0.4103.116-1
from Debian/unstable.
This seems NOT possible:
# LC_ALL=C apt-get install -t unstable chromium
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
chromium : Depends: libavcodec58 (>= 7:4.2)
libavformat58 : Depends: libavcodec58 (= 7:4.3-2)
Depends: libchromaprint1 (>= 1.3.2) but it is not
going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I downloaded the chromium version 83.0.4103.116-1 deb file manually
and tried first:
# LC_ALL=C dpkg -i chromium_83.0.4103.116-1_amd64.deb
dpkg: regarding chromium_83.0.4103.116-1_amd64.deb containing chromium:
chromium conflicts with libavcodec58 (= 7:4.3-2)
libavcodec58:amd64 (version 7:4.3-2) is present and installed.
dpkg: error processing archive chromium_83.0.4103.116-1_amd64.deb (--install):
conflicting packages - not installing chromium
Errors were encountered while processing:
chromium_83.0.4103.116-1_amd64.deb
Then forced the installation:
# LC_ALL=C dpkg -i --force-all chromium_83.0.4103.116-1_amd64.deb
Starting chromium seems to work.
Last I run 'apt --fix-broken install' which tries to uninstall:
# LC_ALL=C apt --fix-broken install -s

AFAICS chromium/unstable wants libavcodec-extra58 which replaces libavformat58.
That's the problem I guess.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
