Could we get this solved somehow ? I talked to the maintainer of the
VideoLAN repo for openSUSE and I'd need a list of things that are not
compatible to sort it out somehow.
It's really a serious issue as it breaks several packages, once the
VideoLAN and our repositories are both in the package manager.

Obviously, one issue being that VideoLAN's ffmpeg/libffmpeg0 package is
built without swscale.

Are there other issues we know of ?
