tags 741848 + pending thanks Dear maintainer,
I've prepared an NMU for gst-plugins-ugly0.10 (versioned as 0.10.19-2.1) and uploaded it to unstable. I hope you don't mind me avoiding the DELAYED queue, but the patch has been sitting in the BTS over a week now, and this package is currently blocking the libx264-142 transition: https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/libx264-142.html Regarding the patch itself, the BTS contains two patches that workaround the same issue: AC_CHECK_A52DEC always returns "HAVE_A52DEC=no". Matthias identified the reason why this recently broke: In a52dec_0.7.4-17, I have made the struct a52_state_t visible again, because the handbrake package currently makes use of that struct. Given the lack of development on the a52dec front, I asserted that this wouldn't break existing packages, but it seems that m4/a52.m4 of this package explicitly checks for the availabity of this struct, and asserts that a52dec was "too old" if this type is present. Ideally the test should be rewritten, but for the purposes of Debian/Ubuntu, disabling the check as done by Hideki seems just fine to me. Regards, Reinhard
