Are you soru, that ffmpeg packages created by mrpo...@ubuntu.com creates hard dependancy? According to the changelog, these ffmpeg packages adds libamr support via dlopen(), this is runtime libamr detection, so, no hard dependancies on the libamr packages. I can paste changelog from patched ffmpeg packages for Ubuntu 8.10 again: ffmpeg (3:0.svn20080206-12ubuntu3+unstripped5+amr1) intrepid; urgency=low * debian/patches/60_dlopen_libamr.diff: add libamr support via dlopen(). (LP: #93849) * debian/patches/series: add the above patch. * debian/confflags: pass --enable-libamrnbbin and --enable-libamrwbbin. -- Lionel Le Folgoc < mrpo...@ubuntu.com> Mon, 27 Oct 2008 17:54:09 > What could be included would be perhaps the headers.
