Unfortunately this is just wishful thinking. As it is, your proposed removal of deprecated features is going to break about three quarters of all packages using the libav* libraries in Debian: FF_API_PIX_FMT: 57 amide avbin avifile bino chromium-browser dff dolphin-emu dvswitch ffmpeg2theora ffmpegthumbnailer ffmpegthumbs fuse-emulator-utils gmerlin-avdecoder gmerlin-encoders gnash gpac gst-libav1.0 guvcview harvid hedgewars info-beamer karlyriceditor kodi lebiniou libam7xxx libavg libde265 libextractor libquicktime linphone lives lynkeos.app mlt mplayer mplayer2 opal openscenegraph ovito paraview performous pjproject qutecom rbdoom3bfg sflphone strigi survex transcode vtk vtk6 vxl wxsvg x264 xjadeo xpra yorick-av zoneminder FF_API_AVFRAME_LAVC: 19 acoustid-fingerprinter amarok aubio blender chromaprint dvbcut gazebo goldendict jugglemaster kino lightspark mrpt opencv shotdetect spek squeezelite vcmi vlc xine-lib-1.2 FF_API_AUDIOCONVERT: 5 alsa-plugins cantata ffdiaporama moc mpv FF_API_DESTRUCT_PACKET: 1 openmw FF_API_AVFILTERBUFFER: 1 pianobar Note that this is only counting one API per packet. Ideally you should make sure that patches for all of them are available, before these APIs get removed. Considering how widespread the use of FF_API_PIX_FMT and FF_API_AVFRAME_LAVC still is, it might make sense to delay their removal.
