Something like this commit should do the trick: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/x264.git;a=commitdiff;h=ceab497a30560db9db7bf6ded594400f76a2686a This is not finished, though. It still needs documentation in README.Debian. I'm also thinking about included a wrapper script that sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH. And it is of course totally untested, so feedback more than welcome. -- regards, Reinhard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
