This is why the new ffmpeg will use different symbols. Again, read the first message. according to the first message, this is *not* true. the packages will have different libraries-names / sonames, but this does not mean that they don't have clashing symbols. if both library foo (/usr/lib/libfoo.so.3.21) and library bar (/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libbar.so.4.1) export the symbol knarzifax, then how do you make sure that an application that is linked against both libraries for different functionality always chooses the korrect knarzifax? this becomes a real world issue, as soon as plugins are involved (which i find a common practice to access multimedia frameworks). application flurp has a both flurp-plugin-libav and flurp-plugin-ffmpeg installed. whichever plugin is loaded first, will pull in a library that shadows the symbol knarzifax for the *other* plugin. fgamsdr IOhannes -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Icedove - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJT10jZAAoJELZQGcR/ejb4o1AP/3aoHeFNZ3xcOLl/I0Y9g5Fp GsejeqWuE59CTtoo/1jp5byhueA5Uw9LpmFOmfKttKvqG3sEXhIkXBOA9wATXYS1 uDsblHzuhKhKagmkQ42N1Ql0h+d7vkZA8/duaAtcSb+8HOU/peMRUMQx/MQyxF4X z8hrmSHMpd9S2QTFJxjIfFa0kCQ9gtBv+p/2BSCRpLkxQBDyCoZeHwTmNQnpac4S xYT5Qzo2YW7U5JKXjllHoKcvdBJ1+gYJYfByBcn7ZmHVSv2Ittu9pl7kgH+S1KPk kdK9mopt3B0riCnIR+m3467TJ4U/F/UQ5VuZwENZ5GqivyiqvHHyyWnf3T2aa+rC hZM+k7mF06kQzOWcRi9F9Mqa/Tt0myZKYZVqpJY/y4U6LUYeSAcNmr6b0vzUkxh1 9YG3RwXMLNQZz565Dw7NoqO/7BKgoviSwSnd6OpHruGIYfScPQGkh0q9eU8v4q0U wazXWQ9ks1hHmp4Ea5QJuT+S/BQv3I5QEW0QYXn6flUkDeyj+T27djBisugive7g yGWEr4sVGczzwXjo1T5vgYxNGzvxPeBWGUzJqsRtxqVZKYYyMLYdzNA0TUP1B3vK rQQJXi7oXDTt/ta7yp09Pbp3ZHqxkJbjpLibgYoY9g9dIsEab25jahIK5xRBytz1 6BtDVvwo6srTgQEqOjzw =vaCN -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Bug#729203: [FFmpeg-devel] Reintroducing FFmpeg to Debian
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 (resending, to keep debian-devel and the bug-report in the loop) personally i would welcome if both libav and ffmpeg could co-exist within Debian¹. as i see it, libav and ffmpeg have diverged, and as such i would like to have the choice which one to use.
