- The pymedia project includes much of the ffmpeg code, while it should better dynamically link to the existing ffmpeg libs (like libavformat.so.52 and libavcodec.so.52) - The included ffmpeg code is badly outdated and not cleanly separated - The code-base seems to be unmaintained. - It depends on the i386 architecture - We already have python-gst0.10 and pygame for python multimedia support
So it might be a bad idea to Maintain a Debian package for pymedia. Anyway I created a initial package for you to experiment with. In the current state the package compiles and installs without problems on amd64 but the import fails. >>> import pymedia ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pymedia/video/vcodec.so: undefined symbol: mm_flags
