It is a little bikeshed. Originally the virtual was ordered in a way, then ordered in another and now we are discussing which one is better for the user after we turned it around again. There isn't ANYTHING that is impacting users beside those that they might get the next versions of gst-libav just end up with a runtime error if they use ffmpeg (if the upstream authors follow up with their plan) or those users wanting to use mencoder might get some compile errors if I forgot to update the compatibility patch after somebody bumped w/out testing. It really boils down to decide to be extra careful with mplayer and xbmc or being extra careful with gst-libav and maybe vlc. Sadly this whole discussion turned to discussing who is right or wrong, who is the fork or not and who's an evil bastard oppressing the poor Austrian genius or not. I'm ok discussing technical merits and spend time fixing issues, not so much discussing stuff I'd rather not discuss such as if I'm an evil bastard for not working with somebody that joked about my death. lu
