A spice client without Opus could utilize Celt and one that only supports Opus could negotiate with the server for Opus. The fall back for either is the raw PPM data. 1. Celt051 will not be in debian, for the reasons outlined several times before. 2. I stepped in trying to write a patch in question when the alternative was to drop spice from debian due to its dependency on celt. I don't know neither spice nor celt nor opus to be able to write something more serious. 3. We've about a week or two before debian release freeze, after which time no new software will be accepted into debian. Care to explain how realistic your proposal is?
