I think this is too many to maintain. I would argue you should only support: 2.8, 3.2, 3.4, 4.1 and 4.4 2.8 (Ubuntu LTS 16.04 + RHEL7) 3.2 (Debian Stretch) 3.4 (Ubuntu LTS 18.04) 4.1 (Debian Buster) 4.4 (master) Because: - 4.0 is only OpenMandriva, and even the link says 4.4 - 4.2 is only used by Fedora 32, that is EOL I would also discuss with Debian, to see if Stretch can be updated to 3.4, but that's a different topic. jb > they are used by maintained distributions as listed on > https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Downstreams > (hint, please keep this page updated so release work is targeted to where its > most usefull) > why 4.1 again ? because debian security people asked about the newly > accumulating fixes in the branch and the next release and IMHO it makes sense > > thx > > -- > Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB > > "You are 36 times more likely to die in a bathtub than at the hands of a > terrorist.
