Package: vlc
Version: 1.0.3-1
Severity: normal

        Hi !

Apparently, ogg/dirac video playback does not work with the
recent versions of VLC while it used to work at some point
in the 0.9.x branch.

Step to reproduce:
 * download the test video there:
    http://diracvideo.org/download/test-streams/ogg/
 * Play it with vlc.

The relevant log messages seem to be:
  swScaler: Palette is not supported as output pixel format

I have not been able to find mode relevant messages using the -vvv
option.

Could you retry with the official swscale from debian (also all the libav*)

Also it seems your libvlc and libvlccore haven't been updated. it
shouldn't be a problem but it's worth updating them to double check.

reassign 557266 libavutil49
retitle 557266 Be more robust against broken 3rd party packages
stop

This is not going to work in any case. libavcodec uses many many
internals of libavutil, so these libraries absolutely do need to be kept
at the same upstream version under any circumstances!

Perhaps we can or should add some Breaks field on libavutil49 like that:

Packages: libavutil49
Breaks: libavcodec52 (>> ${Source:upstream-version})

As liabformat depends on libavcodec, I think this should be sufficient.

Opinions?

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.17
Severity: normal

Hi dear lintian Maintainers.

we discovered an lintian error in the ffmpeg package and I would like
you to ask for advice on this issue:

Andreas is talking about this error:

E: weak-library-dev-dependency

libswscale-dev on libswscale0 (<= ${source:Upstream-Version}-99) | libswscale-unstripped-0 (<= ${source:Upstream-Version}-99)

I think this is an false positive. Let me explain:

 - there exists 2 flavors of ffmpeg. One is the regular set of packages,
   these can be found in the debian archive. Then there is an set of
   extra packages that are built against libraries that are currently
   not in debian. They are marked with -unstripped- in this lintian
   report, but this has already been changed to -extra- in git.

 - Both sets are supposed to be ABI compatible.

 - the version numbers of these package sets do no necessarily need to
   be kept in sync. They are different uploads and keeping them in sync
   is difficult.

In this situation, I think the error is overexaggeratd. What do you as
lintian maintainer think about this? Shall we add an override, or do you
think that lintian should be changed here? If the former, please
reassing and retitle this bug appropriately.
