Sure, but how about our libavutil pakage Conflicting against all of 
Marillat's packages except libavutil itself? All our packages depend 
on libavutil, so this would solve half the problem. We could do the 
same for our libavcodec package (conflicting against all of Marillat's 
packages except libavcodec itself). This should fix many of the 
problems, or do I miss anything?

Yes, that's insane. :/
