You may have caught the middle of the ffmpeg transition. afaik, ffmpeg never do releases so debian has to take a snapshot of their current svn, or whatever revision control system they use. Then they have to get all the ffmpeg using apps rebuilt against that one snapshot, which can sometimes be tricky because ffmpeg interfaces occasionally change. -Eric Rz. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
