After reaching out to zypp-devel it seems libzypp has the info about
vendor:src.rpm in the repo data, but it does not make use of it.
I have modified the ffmpeg-2.8 and ffmpeg-3.2 packages and added
hardcoded Requires, which covers SLE_12 and 42.1.

How would that solve the interdependency issue? There is no easy way to
refer to the packman build of a package. If the affected packages have
to be touched anyway its probably easier to go with the hardcoding of
Provides/Requires. Also its not so much about ffmpeg itself, but the
libraries it provides to other packages.
