No prob. :) But i didn't received any notification so this could be upsetting a little bit if package was retired. Community barely fixed crash dump recently [1] and Fedora users before often write me on email with various questions, so this makes me believe that app is not useless and users interesting in it.

And as for Recommends in spec file yes, this my bad and this not allowed but i believed that soon this will be legal [2].

No, that is definitely not the case. W (the FPC and spot) concluded that specifying *any* requirements (be it hard or weak dependencies) that can only be fulfilled outside the fedora repos is a no-go, especially for patent-encumbered software like ffmpeg. Which is, for example, why the automatic dependency generator for R needed to be adjusted.

Adding 'gnome-shell' as hard dependency could be easiest way to fix but i believe we don't want this because this install many gnome packages so let's try move in this direction [3] until we come up with something better.
