Description:

One of the updates in the last month broke my ffmpeg package.
I ran pacman -Syyu today, and it still didn't work.

When I run:

ffmpeg -i some_file.mp4

I would get this error:

http://pastebin.com/E0mzi8XM

Since the bug mentions shared libraries, after some digging, I concluded that since I had
ffmpeg-compat installed for supporting audacity, there could be some conflicts.

Package versions:
ffmpeg 1:1.0-2
ffmpeg-compat 20120509-2

So I tested this.

Steps to reproduce:

I ran these commands to hopefully clean up the system

pacman -Rc ffmpeg
pacman -Rc ffmpeg-compat

Then I installed ffmpeg alone:

pacman -S ffmpeg

And the "ffmpeg -i somefile.mp4" command worked.

pacman -S ffmpeg-compat

After that I get the same error.
This is a problem since other ffmpeg commands don't work properly as well.


Hopefully this is just a problem with my system.
Please respond whether you could reproduce the issue,
and whether you need additional information,
and tell me if there is a solution to this problem.
I need both audacity and ffmpeg on my system :D

This task depends upon

works for me, but ffmpeg says that 'At least one output file must be specified'

$ pacman -Q ffmpeg ffmpeg-compat
ffmpeg 1:1.0-2
ffmpeg-compat 20120509-2
