Having discovered this bug report and subsequently absorbing it, I cloned the repository, built the debs, and installed them into my primary Sid box. Now I need to track the repo. I didn't see why this package has still not been uploaded. Perhaps I need to reread the report. Nonetheless, all the objections to the state of ffmpeg in Debian remain unaddressed. This is, to me, egregious. Even if ffmpeg is the only project to be so abused by Debian, that by itself is sufficient to discredit the distribution as a whole. The value-add of all the members of the team can be rendered useless for some installations by the handling of even one important component. Having begun with release 1.0^H1 so long ago, I may have arrived at the point of looking elsewhere for my primary GNU/Linux distro. -- <not cent from sell> May the LORD God bless you exceedingly abundantly!
