This broke the vlc build with the following error: checking for AVCODEC... yes configure: error: libavcodec versions 56 and later are not supported yet. See: http://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/vlc-2.1.4.x86_64-linux http://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/vlc-2.1.4.i686-linux I tried upgrading vlc to the latest release (2.1.5), but it didn't help: http://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/vlc-2.1.5.x86_64-linux http://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/vlc-2.1.5.i686-linux Two solutions come to mind: * Add an alternate 'ffmpeg-2.3' package (in addition to 2.4.x) for use by vlc. * Look for upstream vlc patches that fix this problem. Jason, would you like to look into it? Mark ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread

I fixed this by adding ffmpeg-2.2 and using it for vlc, in commit f9e687b51aafaa160b3c361c801ec5823dbef2f0. I'm closing this bug now. Mark ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
