Well, the "proper" fix from OBS' side would be (I'm guessing) to not
rename the package when linking it, e.g. instead of linking
build.o.o/ffmpeg-5 => pmbs/A_tw-ffmpeg-5
just link to => pmbs/ffmpeg-5
but that does interfere with the logic the packages are named in packman
for making clear which one should be built for what distro.
Another way (instead of fixing the _multibuild) would be to remove the
ffmpeg-6-mini.spec, if only one spec file is present, no _multibuild
magic is necessary.
Bot no matter which way we go, we probably need a diff on pmbs vs build.o.o.
ciao,
