The suggestion comes from command-not found, reassinging there. ** Package changed: libav (Ubuntu) => command-not-found (Ubuntu)

Vous pouvez l'installer en tapant : sudo apt-get install libav-tools $ ffmpeg Le programme 'ffmpeg' n'est pas encore installé. Vous pouvez l'installer en tapant : sudo apt-get install ffmpeg (quick translation : these program are not installed, you can install them with apt-get install libav-tools - for ffplay - and apt-get install ffmpeg - for ffmpeg) If you install libav-tools, ffplay still gives the same suggestion If you try to install ffmpeg, you get : $ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg Lecture des listes de paquets... Fait Construction de l'arbre des dépendances Lecture des informations d'état... Fait Aucune version du paquet ffmpeg n'est disponible, mais il existe dans la base de données. Cela signifie en général que le paquet est manquant, qu'il est devenu obsolète ou qu'il n'est disponible que sur une autre source E: Le paquet « ffmpeg » n'a pas de version susceptible d'être installée (quick translation : the package ffmpeg as no version that might be installed) What I would expect : - ffmpeg/ffplay command-lines should suggest the same package. - if these command-lines are replaced by avconv/avplay, they should not suggest any package (or they should redirect to avconv/avplay like on Precise) - we should never suggest a package that can not be installed on this version, or a package that does not include the command-line To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/command-not-found/+bug/1297826/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
