I've got a problem with xine-lib crying for ffmpeg>=20080715. I have
ffmpeg-svn installed and this fullfilled the requirement. But even if
I write something like presents=('ffmpeg' 'ffmpeg>=20081031') into my
PKGBUILD the error occure again and again. A dynamic Date as mentioned
in the comments of ffmpeg-svn (something like date +%Y%m%d would be
nice).

Thank you

Hello,

The correct field is "provides", not "presents". However, the real issue is in ffmpeg-svn's PKGBUILD:

provides=('ffmpeg=`date +%Y%m%d`')

should be:

provides=("ffmpeg=`date +%Y%m%d`") [or even better: provides=("ffmpeg=$(date +%Y%m%d)")]

because command substitution does not occur between single quotes.

I left a comment on ffmpeg-svn's page regarding this.
