Once I manage to push my packaging to the alioth repository you could 
simply clone that.

I tried this with FFmpeg 2.1.4 and didn't get that warning, but the 
audio was out of sync. Without the '-r 30' option audio and video are in 
sync.
If this doesn't help you, try to ask upstream: ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org
