Please remove the testing migration block of ffmpeg.I don't think you understand the problem. Having both ffmpeg and libav in the same release is the problem.But having mysql-5.5 and mariadb-10.0 in jessie is apparently no problem, despite previous claims. What's the difference?It would really be nice to get an answer for this question.
mysql-5.5 and mariadb-10.0 in Jessie is not exactly "no problem". There were extensive discussions before the freeze about which of the *four* forks of MySQL would ship in Jessie.
Bear in mind that MySQL and Maria were both already in testing at this point. The security team understandably want to support only one fork. The maintainers could not agree which it should be.
We eventually arranged to ship two of those four forks in Jessie with a view to having only one in Stretch, easing the transition for users if it ends up being Maria. That aim has not changed. Jessie was a compromise situation.
This isn't a good direct comparison with ffmpeg/libav since we do not have the situation of them both in testing at the moment, and I believe that should remain the case until one or the other becomes the obvious candidate. We do not want to end up with dependencies on both in testing that need to be untangled later.
