If that works, I think we can drop the drop the sed surgery regarding Makefile.pic / config.mak.pic, I think.
In this context I believe that the $(MAKE) calls in debian/rules are implemented in a strange way...
You know, we call MAKE twice; once to build the static libraries and then again to build the shared libraries and the frontends. To build the static libraries we call MAKE from the top source directory. Then we backup the static libraries after compilation. Afterwards, to build the shared libraries and the frontends, we go down into each of the libraries' directories and call 'make clean && make' (roughly) there.
Is this still necessary, given that we do not manipulate Makefile.pic anymore, or could we simply run 'make clean && make' again from the top source directory instead? If it is possible, we should do this for the sake of clarity.
Another thing that I don't understand is, how it builds the ffmpeg frontend (which it obviously does) if MAKE is only run inside the subdirectories but not in the top directory...
Yet another issue in the context of debian/rules: As long as we don't run configure with --disable-optimizations, the {C,CXX,LD}FLAGS environment variables that are set by dpkg-buildpackage are simply ignored and overridden with dubious optimization flags in the range between -O3 and -O5. I consider this unacceptable and believe, all sources shuold be compiled with the same standard policy-conform set of flags that is CFLAGS="-Wall -g -O2".
