Package: libmpeg2-4-dev
Version: 0.4.0b-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm currently packaging VXL:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=390999

This library depends on libmpeg2. Although it provides an old version in
it's tarball I think the only sane way is to use the Debian package of
libmpeg2 as a dependency.

However, I'm having trouble doing this. 

The cmake macro FindMPEG2.cmake assumes that libvo is provided, but
it is not. Moreover VXL also needs libvo and the corresponding headers
to be available.
I looked at the mpeg2dec source package and although libvo is compiled
(static though) it is simply not installed (also in upstream sources).
Is there any reason for this?

I'd really like to depend on an up-to-date libmpeg2 instead of using
this old code in the VXL tarball.


Thanks,

Michael
