You're right, it's available on powerpc (I've updated that on Git), but I don't see it being available on arm. > have you tested lives on any of the excluded packages and verified > that it does work without frei0r-plugins-dev?

I think upstream might have tested that LiVES (upstream not the Debian package) works without frei0r-plugins as long as it's not built with frei0r-plugins-dev though.

Perhaps these can be documented in README.Debian. AFAIK they just allow for extra encoding options, but I'll verify that with upstream. Once verified I'll add a README.Debian.
