Really? I didn't know. I just read somewhere that it was forked off of
the MKV muxing code of the x264 frontend.

I'd consider the libmkv package ready for upload, BTW, but you already
guessed that yourself. ;)

 The problem with that is that audioconvert.h is not part of the public

 this header.

 OK.

 The proper long-term solution is to port handbrake to 'libavresample'
 (not yet uploaded to experimental, the packaging needs review, and is
 not going to be included in wheezy). As short-term workaround, I'd
 suggest to copy the parts of audioconvert.h and audioconvert.c to the
 handbrake packaging.

 For the quick and dirty solution, I did just that, but the packaging
 is crufty. As I need to get some sleep right now, it will be great to
 see the package gain some love from others, even if we can't upload
 handbrake due to licensing and dependencies in time for wheezy.

 OTOH, it never hurts to be able to have the package in source form
 ready for a compilation to be used as we see fit, while the package
 has not hit the main archive.

 That's excellent news! Thanks for working on it and count me in as
 supporter (i.e., put me to Uploaders).

 Just did that and pushed my current changes to the repo:

    http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/handbrake.git

 I hope that others will join me in getting it slowly in shape.

I just noticed that libmkv was written specifically for handbrake. In
this case, I wouldn't even bother uploading libmkv separately and just
use whatever libmkv ships with handbrake.

TBH, I agree.

Fabian, this does not mean that your work on
git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-multimedia/libmkv was in vain. As
soon as some other package uses it, we can use your packaging and
upload to debian. But until then, we gain little to nothing by
shipping it outside of handbrake

I was going off by the assumption that handbrake ships with libmkv,
but I found it doesn't. It simply downloads libmkv. I think it will be
easier to upload libmkv instead.
