Obviously the patches will be dropped when ffmpeg is updated to 2.8.5; that's just normal packaging stuff and not something you need to file a task about.

Also I'm not sure where you got "extra/ffmpeg 1:2.8.5-1"; current version is 1:2.8.4-4.

Ehm, ignore my previous comment; ffmpeg was indeed bumped to 1:2.8.5-1 in SVN without removing the patches.

Actually I see it on arch-commits mailing list. Due to unknown reasons the binary package is not built and synced yet. I expect later there will be a commit to drop these patches from PKGBUILD, but there's nothing. This is just a ticket to prevent possible problems.

Patch happily patched the files so I assumed 2.8.5 didn't contain them, then I realized my mistake which is why it was in SVN only. Just pushed 2.8.5-2 without the patches.
