Source: ffmpeg Version: 7:2.6.3-1+b1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
I was looking at the various dependencies of the -ffmpeg packages, and it seems to me some of them are a bit superfluous. For example: - Do we really need 2 different MP3 encoders (libmp3lame and libshine)? - Given the libmp3lame support, what's the purpose of libtwolame? - What is the purpose of the libopenjpeg support given that ffmpeg has its own built-in JPEG2000 encoder/decoder? Other stuff seems a bit niche to me (e.g. the libzmq thing in libavfilter), but I guess someone could find that useful. I mean, if people actually ask for these features then I see no problem, but you might want to reduce the number of dependencies otherwise, to reduce the attack surface of the ffmpeg packages. Any thought?
