In the past, ffmpeg was maintained in Debian. Later Debian maintainers
switched to maintaining libav. Whilst it is possible to offer both
stacks, nobody has step up to maintain ffmpeg stack in Debian. Ubuntu
also does not have capacity to maintain ffmpeg stack at this time. If
you wish to see a supported ffmpeg stack in both Debian and Ubuntu,
please become a developer and start maintaining it in Debian. So far
such group of people did not produce such work. Until the situation
changes, Ubuntu is going to provide the only packaged and available
stack - libav.
