Package: libreoffice-avmedia-backend-gstreamer
Version: 1:4.3.3-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
trying to insert AVI video in libreoffice-impress presentation, it does not seem to work without having gstreamer1.0-libav installed on the system. Although I can imagine the package is only needed for certain types of videos (I haven't tested that on other different video files), it might be worth putting gstreamer1.0-libav into recommened or at least suggested packages of libreoffice-avmedia-backend-gstreamer.
Best regards,
Pavel

That was intended by recommending gstreamer1.0-ffmpeg. Which is gone
without noticing and now it's too late for 4.3.3 in jessie.
This is fixed already, though:
* debian/rules:
- suggest gstreamer1.0-libav instead of gstreamer1.0-ffmpeg
(closes: #776593)
I don't believe a Recommends: change will qualify for a point release so I
am not sure it will ever be fixed in jessie..
Regards,
Rene
