It may be easier to read configure.ac first, if it is provided.

No, I think I understood you correctly. But what we also try to do is not
only remove the _use_ of bundled copies, but also the bundled copies them-
selves (there is an example in the qt package recipe). This is a bit of an
additional security; if the flags change, for instance, we are sure
nevertheless to not compile the bundled software accidentally.
Here it seems to simply be the ffmpeg subdirectory at the top level.
I have no doubt that the package is better than before (except for maybe
the libdvd* issue). But now we realise there is a problem with bundling
and potential solutions, why not make it even better :-)
