I'm happy to improve the wording, but the current proposed wording is just not acceptable.
>From what I gather from the comments, the wording should probably point out: - this program (/usr/bin/ffmpeg) is intentionally kept at an old version for compatibility purposes only. - it will be removed in a later version of ubuntu - Users and Applications are urged to convert to /usr/bin/avconv, which does receive maintenance and development. Any takers for proposing a patch? -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/939863 Title: When users run ffmpeg <whatever> they are presented with a message that is somewhat erroneous & completely childish To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libav/+bug/939863/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
