that's not the question at all. I have no problems if one library is
being replaced by another library which has better or more features,
if it was there in the changelog somewhere about why the change is
there but there is nothing to suggest the same in the changelogs of
any of them of why it happens.

libav (6:9.4-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * Imported Upstream version 9.4
    - h264: check for luma and chroma bit dept being equal (CVE-2013-2277)
    - iff: validate CMAP palette size (CVE-2013-2495)
    - Thus, closes: #703200
  * debian/watch: download xz files and  tigthen checks

That changelog is for the whole lot of them. Either it should have
been part of the changelog so the user knows this is expected or
something. The other thing I dunno if this library needs more memory
than the regular library or something like that (extra functionality =
extra memory,  I do understand not necessary all the time but still )
.  I hope I am able to make sense.

Till l8er.
