Bug#670861: libavcodec53: unsatisfiable dependencies on libavutil51

2012-04-29 Thread Sven Joachim
Package: libavcodec53
Version: 6:0.8.1-5
Severity: grave

Your package is not installable, because it depends on both
libavutil51 (= 6:0.8.1-5) and libavutil51 ( 5:0.8.1-99) which cannot
possibly be both fulfilled.

Offtopic here but,

I want to make sure we do not have anymore bugs like this in the next
release of Debian after wheezy. I am for having only one libavcodec
library that is GPLv3+ enabled.

I don't have specific stats but I imagine packages that cannot go with
a GPLv3+ enabled libav are few and are simply other (L)GPL packages.
In such a case, these packages should just be relicensed (LGPLv2.1+ or
GPLv2+ should be fine). A more extreme measure is that these packages
are simply dropped, but if that what it takes to stop this kind of
bug, I rather have the packages dropped.
