Package: gnome-video-effects Version: 0.4.1-3 Severity: normal gstreamer-plugins-bad has been in the news at least twice recently for security holes.

I wanted to remove gstreamer-plugins-bad from my system, but this would remove gnome-video-effects, which would remove cheese. I don't know why cheese needs a ton of insecurely implemented codecs for playing Nintendo games etc in order to take snapshots and record videos. Probably it doesn't? -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gnome-video-effects depends on: ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad 1.10.0-1 ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-good 1.10.0-1 gnome-video-effects recommends no packages.
