# Georgy Yakovlev  (2022-01-15)
# Last branch update happened ~ 12 month ago.
# Maximum kernel supported is 5.9, which we no longer package.
# So 5.10 LTS users can't use it. only 4.x LTS and 5.4 LTS.
# ebuild is effectively unmaintained/untested, so is upstream branch.
# Removal date: sometime around June 2022

Feel free to reach out if you think this should not happen or be
delayed.

2.0.x is stable for quite some time.
2.1.x is going stable today too, and it's the upstream LTS branch.

It is fine, btw this mpeg4 dialect is still supported by libavcodec so
only people wanting to encode using the original codec instead
libavcodec would need to enable it.
