Diffing /usr/include/quicktime from testing and /usr/include/lqt from
unstable reveals that both versions are almost, but not quite
API-compatible. In particular, lqt_version.h explicitly has

        -#define LQT_CODEC_API_VERSION 2
        +#define LQT_CODEC_API_VERSION 3

There's only a handful of backwards-incompatible stuff, though, so it
might well be that a symlink hack works for most packages in Debian, but
I'd rather have a second opinion on that from someone more familiar with
libquicktime. Unfortunately, the maintainer appears to be awol recently
(Gerd, are you around?), and Christian stated he's not interested in
doing any further work on the package.

Regards,

Daniel.
