Hi there. There's this moderately popular video ripper/transcoder/converter based on ffmpeg/libav called [handbrake][0], which I am trying to [package for Debian][1].
[0]: http://handbrake.fr/ [1]: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-multimedia/handbrake.git Handbrake is supposed to work under many environments and Christian Marillat created some packages for his repository, which contains a [patch for kFreeBSD][2]. As I don't have a *BSD system available, I would like to make sure that the package compiles/works before the first upload to Debian, once we have the basics arranged. [2]: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/handbrake.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches/0004-Enable-compilation-on-kFreeBSD-arches.patch Given this, would it be possible for the people working on kFreeBSD to see if the patch given above is sufficient, if there are improvements to be made etc? For now, the package in that repository has only two (soon to be only 1) build-dependency that is not yet satisfied in Debian proper: libmkv-dev and libfaac-dev. The first is already in the NEW queue of the ftp-masters, but both are ready to be built from the pkg-multimedia git repositories: [3]: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/faac.git [4]: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/libmkv.git For now, handbrake is not yet able to be built cleanly with git-buildpackage, but once the build-dependencies are installed, a simple "fakeroot debian/rules binary" creates working debs for it. Well, that's it. I intend to push everything to upstream, so that we carry as little of a delta as possible.
