Yes, new x264 introduces new libmajor, which requires a mass
rebuilding of other packages.
Then the ffmpeg update must be fixed.
Either only backport the needed fixes,
or fix the build with current x264.
It's not allowed to push updates that breaks/disables current features.
This is _exactly_ why we have the policy to backport fixes and not
blindly update to newer versions.

To Funda :
you modified the spec file of ffmpeg :
disable x264 support as x264 is too old in mageia 1
This may induce a regression (a missing feature)
Why not to update libx264 before updating ffmpeg, and by this way allow
to keep x264 support enabled ?
Is there a problem for other programs depending on libx264 if you update
it ? (need to rebuild them ?)
Regards
Philippe
