do old version of ffmpeg actually break audacity? if not, I would advice
against adding a Breaks field

(btw, Conflicts is actually only for handling file conflicts in
packages. If breakage occurs, 'Breaks' should be used. you won't see
many packages in debian using it, because only lenny's dpkg can handle
it, though.)
