   Where does this data come from? I suspect there is something wrong
with the way it was compiled: VLC has been dynamically linking with
ffmpeg ever since the Debian packages shipped shared libraries (April
2006), Kino uses shared ffmpeg libraries since 1.0.0-1 (uploaded in
May 2007), and I don't know precisely about the others, but motion and
smilutils also link dynamically with ffmpeg.
