The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
libavcodec54{a}
The following packages will be upgraded:
libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavformat54 libavutil-dev
libavutil52 libswscale-dev libswscale2

While I don't understand all the implications of the above upgrade,
however I do understand that one of the packages is being removed
while the other is taking it's place. I didn't find anything in the
changelog as to why this is desirable. Also why it took one choice
when it says there are two choices.
Looking forward for more info. Maybe I did something wrong.
