As I tried to imply above: If no decision between having both, only FFmpeg, or only Libav can be reached with normal means, we have to ask the TC. > What result are you aiming to achieve? I'd like to see stretch released with FFmpeg. So either FFmpeg replaces Libav or the Security Team gets convinced that having both is acceptable. > Splitting multimedia packages up in two groups, each one depending on > a different implementation of the same interfaces? This is a possible outcome, if both are allowed in stretch. > And on the basis of what? If both are there, any maintainer can make his own decision, probably based on upstream preference. > I feel that we'd better *first* decide on which one between ffmpeg and > libav we want to keep, and drop the alternative. I feel that it's not necessary, but possible, to make a Debian-wide decision between FFmpeg and Libav.
