Public bug reported:
After running dist-upgrade today, I noticed that libav-tools was being
held back. Upon investigation, I discovered it's because I had replaced
the standard codecs and processors with their "-extra" versions. When
LibAV was upgraded from 4:0.8.1 to 6:0.8.3, the "-extra" versions
somehow didn't get included in the upgrade.
The libav-extra metapackage is missing:
steve@x1:~$ apt-cache policy libav-extra
N: Unable to locate package libav-extra
And, for example, note that the libavcodec-extra package is still the
old 4:0.8.3 version:
steve@x1:~$ apt-cache policy libavcodec-extra-53
libavcodec-extra-53:
Installed: 4:0.8.3.0ubuntu1
Candidate: 4:0.8.3.0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 4:0.8.3.0ubuntu1 0
500 http://mirror.anl.gov/ubuntu/ quantal/universe amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
While the regular one is the new 6:0.8.3
steve@x1:~$ apt-cache policy libavcodec53
libavcodec53:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 6:0.8.3-6ubuntu1
Version table:
6:0.8.3-6ubuntu1 0
500 http://mirror.anl.gov/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages
The example above holds for all libav*-extra packages.
