Right, I believe there are many libavcodec-using packages out there that are licensed under GPLv3 or similar licenses, whereas we forcefully keep the default library package at GPLv2.

The question is, how so we do this in the most clean way? Three alternatives come to mind: 1) shlibs.local file 2) modified dh_makeshlibs, dh_shlibdeps, dh_makeshlibs sequence 3) manual dependencies like the -dev packages Although we implemented (2) in the past, I believe manual explicit dependencies in debian/control are the cleaner solution. They are already maintained for the -dev packages, so the maintenance burden is marginal.
