Another status update: it seems that progress hat pretty much stalled since a couple of weeks, which means that we are likely to miss this libav9 for raring. I would find this very disappointing, given the many great improvements that have been integrated into this release. On the plus side, a fix for blender is currently being prepared in pkg-multimedia for debian/experimental: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/blender.git - thanks to Matteo F. Vescovi, who managed to get upstream have a closer look at this. However, there are still many packages to fix left. Help on this project would be greatly appreciated! -- regards, Reinhard -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
