Package: ffmpeg Version: 7:4.4.1-1+b1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
ffmpeg is sometimes (often?) used to just convert video files and for example generate previews. In that case, it's not useful/needed to display anything (or echo any sound) so actually all output stuff could be skipped, reducing dependencies. It'd be nice (imho :) to have a way to install a headless ffmpeg versions on those servers, and not have all those fontconfig/libasound2/x11-common dependencies. I'm unsure how hard it is on the packaging side though.
