Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ffmpeg

Today's security updates included ffmpeg and various media libraries,
except they were not ticked in the update manager, and an attempt to
make this happen via synaptic failed as well. Removing then attempting
to re-install ffmpeg produces this error:

ffmpeg:
 Depends: libavcodec52 but it is not going to be installed or
        libavcodec-extra-52 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 
4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1+medibuntu1 is to be installed
  Depends: libavdevice52 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be

  Depends: libpostproc51 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be

installed or
        libswscale-extra-0 but it is not going to be installed


If I try upgrading one of these, I get this sort of message:

libavformat52:
 Depends: libavcodec52 but it is not going to be installed or
        libavcodec-extra-52 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but

        libavutil-extra-49 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but

Using 32-bit 10.04 LTS with the 'proposed' updates enabled.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Release:        10.04

$ apt-cache policy ffmpeg
ffmpeg:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1
  Version table:
     4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1 0
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main Packages
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-security/main Packages
     4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 0
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Given these are security patches that are not being installed, I think
this is a serious problem.
