Package: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
Version: uninstallable on unstable
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

libavcodec binaries have moved from libavcodec52 to libavcodec53, but
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg has an hardcoded dependency on libavcodec52. Since
libavcodec52 was removed from unstable and testing, gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
is now uninstallable.

I could build and install the package here with the attached patch. I
am willing do an NMU if needed.
