Hmm. Ok. I don't really understand the policy. I feel like it unnecessarily 
withholds valuable features from the users. What if I rename the files and 
reorganize the code so that it no longer resembles libebur128 - and there is no 
hope of ever merging changes between the two code bases? Then, would the policy 
no longer apply? After 6 months I am tired of waiting for libebur128 to accept 
(or reject) the pull requests.

 Thanks for your update, I thought a merge TO mlt is missing. Since it "just" 
provides additonal features I do not see a good chance to provide the fork 
within Debian (and Ubuntu and so on pulls from Debian) :( I may be forced later 
to remove it again. In oct/nov we will freeze our testing/stretch, so I hope 
libebur will merge the pull requests in the next time so that I still can 
provide these features for stretch

  No. 
  MLT uses additional features which have not yet been merged into libebur128: 
https://github.com/jiixyj/libebur128/pull/49 
https://github.com/jiixyj/libebur128/pull/51  We will have to keep using our 
own fork until the changes are merged and released in libebur128. 
  Is there any way to get an exception to the Debian rule and allow the 
internal ebur128 to be used until the features are released by libebur1238?

 Will the next mlt version then have the option to link against the
 system libebur version?
