Can you please elaborate? AFAICS the versions in oldstable (0.8.17)
and stable (11.3) are actively maintained upstream.
Honestly that looks quite enough of security support.

Well, that is an alleged opinion, not fact. Conversely libav backers
couldn't say that "we are giving the users all what they really really

So please let's all just refrain from taking this as we're 100% to
have joined the battle on the right side ;)

Cheers!
