Quoting https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=888366#17 I assure you there there will not be more than one FFmpeg version in the archive at once :) Now if that can be relaxed then we definitely have a solution. > Also your link has an offer to backport the fix, for which I didn't see a > reply (so I don't know if that can't be done because it's way too intrusive > to backport). Normally changes between point releases (5.10 to 5.11 in this case) tend to be huge. Add to that in order to build that beast, having a team member on VAC, means that we need to go to a powerful porterbox or wait many hours before each iteration (yes, owning almost 10 years old hardware doesn't helps). So we do what we can to make it trough official releases. But if someone has the time and build power to fix 5.10 (the patches seemed to apply to 5.11), pretty please go ahead. Cheers, Lisandro. -- En 1975, a los 99 años, muere Leonor Acevedo de Borges. En el velorio, una mujer da el pésame a Borges y comenta: "Pobre Leonorcita, morirse tan poquito antes de cumplir los 100 años. Si hubiera esperado un poquito más...". Borges responde: "Veo, señora, que es usted devota del sistema decimal".
