Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

fmtools is Linux-specific because it uses the Linux-specific
video4linux2 API.  Older versions did not depend on Linux kernel
headers (they included copies locally) so they compiled OK on
FreeBSD, even though they were not useful.  Newer versions do
depend on Linux kernel headers, so they fail to build.  So the
FreeBSD binaries for fmtools should be removed.

I am the fmtools maintainer and its upstream author.

Thanks,

Ben.

God leaned close as mud as man sat up, looked around, and spoke.  Man blinked.
"What is the purpose of all this?" he asked politely.  "Everything must have a
purpose?" asked God.  "Certainly," said man.  "Then I leave it to you to think
of one for all this," said God.  And He went away.  --Vonnegut, _Cat's Cradle_
