 I pushed this on github for now:

 https://github.com/anarcat/FFmpeg/tree/debian/debian

 This can allow people to build ffmpeg binaries reliably under Debian sid
 and jessie right now.

 It is currently non-free because if links against libfaac0 and so
 on. But it's a good start, I believe.

 This package is based on Marillat's ffmpeg packages, so it will need to
 import a lot of the improvements from the libav packages, amongst other
 things. There's a TODO in the debian/ directory explaining required
 work.

 Enjoy!

I have experimented with the new --enable-rpath configure option of
FFmpeg, and found that it is even possible to install shared libraries
alongside Libav, without interrupting Libav headers, programs, or
libraries. See my gist: https://gist.github.com/TimothyGu/8533059

I have also tried to build http://mpv.io/ with ffmpeg instead of
libav, and I received success in doing tthat as well. Build script is
in the gist as well.

Timothy

Bug#729203: ffmpeg packaging progress?

2014-02-10 Thread Antoine Beaupré
Is there a git repository or a source for a ffmpeg package?

I understand there's a controversy against its inclusion in the main
archive, but right now I have stumbled upon a bug (#738599) which keeps
me from reading videos with libav. I'd like to see if I can reproduce
the problem with ffmpeg, and possibly read the darn file. :)

If not, I'll start my own somewhere so that people that compile manually
ffmpeg on Debian at least have a semi-official way of doing so without
reverting to deb-multimedia.org, something which I assume we all want to
avoid here.
