Please no! If you bundle FFmpeg, you force us to ship repackaged tarballs (something we really don't like to do) with the bundled FFmpeg removed: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL#When_Upstream_uses_Prohibited_Code We cannot ship FFmpeg in Fedora in any form, not even in the source RPMs. Not to mention all the other problems with bundled libraries in general: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries Kevin Kofler >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
