Hi,

I'm going to be pushing some "major" updates today. Please report any
possible breakage.

Important things to note :
- Kino 0.8.0 required an ffmpeg update to compile
- The ffmpeg update updates the soname of libpostproc

This lead me to take drastic measures towards libpostproc at last, as I've
disabled it being built from mplayer and renamed the ffmpeg sub-package
"ffmpeg-libpostproc" in order to make it easier to obsolete the old
package from mplayer (which had a higher version).

From there, transcode required a rebuild, and a quick look made me realise
that version 1.0.2 had been out for over a month (no one informed me,
that's quite unusual), and seems to fix several segfaults that made the
current 1.0.0 pretty much unusable. Could be really good news.

Again, please let me know ASAP if anything breaks for you, as the ffmpeg
update might break packages depending on it (libquicktime for instance).

Matthias
