Bug#552705: ITP: mp4v2 -- a library that provides functions to read, eate, and modify mp4 files

Melodie.app from etoile (new release not yet packaged for Debian,
waiting for Clang) uses this library.  However, it also links against
libavcodec, so I've patched it out as the licenses are incompatible.

So we've got one package where the support for libmp4v2 has to be ripped out because of license incompatibilities and another one which will most probably never enter Debian.

Well, I prepared the mp4v2 packages anyway:
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-multimedia/mp4v2.git

I think, however, that its license (MPL) makes the package mostly useless for linking against all GPL'ed software - which is, well, quite a lot.

If any of the listening DDs find use in this package, please consider uploading anyway.
