This looks suspicious. You're not changing the H.264 parser itself;
was this a transitive dependency?
It depends on how you see it I guess. The dependency was in h264.c,
which both the h264 decoder and parser use.
That's what I would call a transitive dependency.
Actually it is hot.
Say that the h264 decoder consists of two dozen files. Only a few of these
object files are shared between both the parser and the decoder. (I'm not
sure of the exact number of the shared and not shared files though.) This
does not warrant making the h264 decoder a dependency of the parser - you
could just as well make the parser a dependency of the decoder, if taking
things to the extreme.
Also, semantically, the parser does not depend on the decoder. They just
happen to share some dependencies.
If you want to split it up properly, you could make the shared subset a
separate entity of its own, like h264_common. But the parser does not
depend on the decoder.
