Hi, Reinhard Tartler wrote: >* don't try to install non-existing documentation, fixes FTBFS on powerpc >* add NEWS.Debian file >* install doc/APIChanges and refer to them in NEWS.Debian (Closes: #623682) >* readd deprecated avcodec_thread_init in libavformat Thanks for this. I tried the package and it seems that NEWS.Debian isn't actually installed. While working on that, I picked a few other nits: * the APIChanges should only be relevant to people using the development libraries, so I think it makes more sense to only install them to lib*-dev and libav-doc * using source format 3.0 (quilt), so "git reset --hard" and other habits don't produce confusing results * allowing "debian/rules clean" as a non-root user. In modern times, most people don't run "debian/rules binary" as true root anyway, and in the worst case "debian/rules clean" will error out and the user will know what to do (just a pet peave). If you have any complaints, I'd be glad to roll a new version of the patches addressing them. Thoughts?
