 Dear Maintainer,
 
 Using the avconv executable to encode a video with the vp8 codec (via libvpx) 
 fails with a bus error. This happens with both webm and mkv containers.
 The error does not happen if a different codec is chosen (e.g. libtheora).
 
 To reproduce:
 0) get a video encoded in something other than vp8 (I used youtube-dl to get 
 an h.264 encoded video).
 1) try to transcode it with
 avconv -i infile.mp4 outfile.webm
 (avconv automatically chooses libvpx for a .webm file)
 2) observe failure.
 
 I will appily provide more debuggin information if provided with instructions 
 for obtaining.
 
Get debug symbols for avconv and the relevant libraries (at least libav*
and libvpx).  There'll either be a -dbg package in the archive, or you
can rebuild from source with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip set in the build
environment.  Then run avconv in gdb, and get a full backtrace when it
crashes.

Cheers,
