There are only a few packages depending on it, thus adding a linitian warning may be overkill: $ apt-cache rdepends libpostproc52 libpostproc52 Reverse Depends: libxine2-ffmpeg libxine1-ffmpeg xbmc-bin vlc-nox transcode mpv mplayer2 mplayer-gui mplayer mencoder libpostproc-dev gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg libgmerlin-avdec1 ffmpeg2theora Regarding the migration libpostproc is missing only from stable, it is present in testing thus every package using it can still migrate and I think it is OK. > > I did not push very hard on this issue because I wanted to see if > there would be any upstream activity and it would make sense to keep > libpostproc anyways.

I think we should discuss the mass bug filing on debian-devel in advance, but otherwise I'm OK with the removal. Would you like to announce the removal? I will migrate XBMC to libavfilter when I can find some time for that.
