With changes "2018-08-27 libavresample drop: ffmpeg
1:4.0.2-3"
(https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/ffmpeg&id=a0f9a95b804d34209c88122fe9941179ad584262)
the 'libavresample' was removed from FFMPEG package without
clear explanation why this was done. This change "breaks"
freerdp build from git repository (I do this on my own) when
the freerdp is build with -DWITH_FFMPEG=ON.
I searched a little the Internet but didn't find what could be wrong with 'libavresample', so why it was dropped? --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov |

lavr: deprecate the entire library
Deprecate the entire library. Merged years ago to provide compatibility
with Libav, it remained unmaintained by the FFmpeg project and duplicated
functionality provided by libswresample.
In order to improve consistency and reduce attack surface, as well as to ease
burden on maintainers, it has been deprecated. Users of this library are asked
to migrate to libswresample, which, as well as providing more functionality,
is faster and has higher accuracy.
