who do you mean with "certain" people? It will annoy all binary
redistributors, because this way, all programs that only need to
demultiplex/decode from files, now suddenly also drag in libraries for
opening sound devices, v4l, and whatnot.
One way to solve this would be to only open them on demand (via
dlopen()), but I'm not seriously suggesting to implement that. My
point is that this change makes avformat considerably more heavyweight
than it already is.
