please forgive me for the ignorant question, but why is ffmpeg port made this way? the makefile or the readme do not comment on this. i mean one hears that ffmpeg is terrible with releases, but http://ffmpeg.org/download.html lists some releases, with archive files and download links and everything: FFmpeg 2.1.1 "Fourier" http://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-2.1.1.tar.bz2 FFmpeg 1.2.4 "Magic" http://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-1.2.4.tar.bz2 are these useless? -f -- many would be cowards if they had enough courage.
