Hello,

One month  later, I still haven't forgotten that task, sorry for the delay ;)

Done, thanks for guidance!

I included your patch, but I'm not sure how to add & run test target in 
debian/rules.
This might go into future improvements, with the runtime loading of SSE on 
i386? (Felipe's suggestion)

I don't know if this packaging activity is worth versioning on alioth, as 
upstream doesn't seem to evolve any/much more?
If yes anyway, am I allowed to initialize a git repo?

Many thanks again,
Cheers,

Vincent.

You can do:

override_dh_auto_test:
  #test commands here

I'd add -DSSE2_FOUND=false to the cmake invocation when run on i386.
This appears to be enough to disable the sse flags

I think git history is always useful, although pre-first release
history not so much (so we can create the repo with the uploaded
package). Please apply to the pkg-multimedia project on alioth, and
read the wiki

Yes, it just means that one can't expect any help from upstream.

Regarding Vincent's packaging:

 * d/control:
- 'Priority: optional' not extra
- packages should be 'Multi-Arch: same'
 * d/copyright: misses copyright of 'Alexey Osipov'

The tests could be run e.g. with:
cd tests; cmake .; make all; ./tests

However, the return code is wrong [2].

Best regards,
Andreas
