I'm fine with the patch, even though Lena has a special meaning in video

yep, i wonder if this is the best solution after sleepng over it.
the lena image is well known, also people know how girls look,
people will recognize artiacts easily in it.
Noone would easily notice if a flower has a different color tone or
some spots. So it may be better to actually try to keep using lena


Yes. Also, the picture is really under fair use in FFmpeg…

Yes, it falls under fair use for FFmpeg. But Debian only accepts files with a DFSG-free license [1], which lena.pnm lacks.

In that light ive posted a naive patch that just downloads lena.pnm
if its missing, a 3rd alternative to that would be to move it to the
fate suite as andreas initially suggested.

It's really insane to wget this in a code that worked without access to
the net. The wget is unexpected here. Also, this is probably not going to
help for the package since the goal is to run the tests depending on the
picture.

Downloading lena.pnm won't work for example on Debian's build daemons, which don't allow access to the internet during package build. Moving this file to the external fate samples would be fine, because these test are not run, when building the Debian package, anyway.

Best regards,
Andreas
