[packman] [For maintainers] ffmpeg-7 for your application, or not?

[Manfred Hollstein]

Hi there,

if you are maintaining a program/package/application which makes use of
ffmpeg, and you are wondering if it works with ffmpeg-7, here's a hint
in case it does not - I just found out that kodi does not build with
ffmpeg-7.

Here's the list of BuildRequires: used by kodi and kodi.binary-addons:

  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libavcodec) >= 60 with pkgconfig(libavcodec) < 61)
  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libavfilter) >= 9 with pkgconfig(libavfilter) < 10)
  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libavformat) >= 60 with pkgconfig(libavformat) < 61)
  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libavutil) >= 58 with pkgconfig(libavutil) < 59)
  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libpostproc) >= 57 with pkgconfig(libpostproc) < 58)
  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libswresample) >= 4 with pkgconfig(libswresample) < 5)
  BuildRequires:  (pkgconfig(libswscale) >= 7 with pkgconfig(libswscale) < 8)

The syntax is not that obvious, so I though I'd share it with other
maintainers.

HTH, cheers.
