Package: ffmpeg Version: 0.cvs20050918-6 Severity: normal In README.Debian, directions are given to use ffmpeg-config to get the arguments needed to link to ffmpeg libraries. But ffmpeg-config isn't part of ffmpeg, but one of the dev packages.
At a minimum, this readme should point the reader to the dev packages. Even better would be to have ffmpeg suggest the dev packages, especially because people may not know how to find them, since the naming is different. Without this, someone who is only bringing in ffmpeg as a dependency to build some other software will be confused and probably have to spend an extra 10-20 minutes deducing where the appropriate dev packages are. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13-5-dc4eb Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages ffmpeg depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdc1394-13 1.1.0-3 high level programming interface f ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.4 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgsm1 1.0.10-13 Shared libraries for GSM speech co ii libimlib2 1.2.1-2 powerful image loading and renderi ii libogg0 1.1.3-2 Ogg Bitstream Library ii libraw1394-5 0.10.1-1.1 library for direct access to IEEE ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.9-0.0 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libtheora0 0.0.0.alpha4-1.2 The Theora Video Compression Codec ii libvorbis0a 1.1.0-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libvorbisenc2 1.1.0-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System protocol client li ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime ffmpeg recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
