Hi Folks,
I been contacted by ffmpeg-upstream on IRC that they are concerned about
our usage wrt cflags. I did some small tests and removed some more
CFLAGS. The current svn more or less relies that the upstream Makefiles
are setting up CFLAGS correctly. i386 is special cased: It deliberatly
compiles a shared lib without -fPIC -DPIC because this way gcc has an
extra register for allocation. Setting it will FTBFS the package, as I
found out short before the last upload.
Having said this, I implemented the suggested changes to svn trunk and
have been asked to upload it soon. Before doing that I wanted to check
with you. Questions:
- Do you have concerns about the way I changed the cflags?
- Shall we modify the shlibs to contain
'libavcodec51 | libavcodec+unstripped51'? as indicated in
README.Debian?
I think now would be a good time to do it, but we need to agree on the
package names.
- I dropped the external dependency on liba52. Diego assured me that
ffmpeg contains an own implementation, and that this implementation
was better anyway.
Again, concerns?
