Bug Description
After running dist-upgrade today, I noticed that libav-tools was being held back. Upon investigation, I discovered it's because I had replaced the standard codecs and processors with their "-extra" versions. When LibAV was upgraded from 4:0.8.1 to 6:0.8.3, the "-extra" versions somehow didn't get included in the upgrade.
The libav-extra metapackage is missing:
steve@x1:~$ apt-cache policy libav-extra
N: Unable to locate package libav-extra
And, for example, note that the libavcodec-extra package is still the old 4:0.8.3 version:
steve@x1:~$ apt-cache policy libavcodec-extra-53
libavcodec-
Installed: 4:0.8.3.0ubuntu1
Candidate: 4:0.8.3.0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 4:0.8.3.0ubuntu1 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
While the regular one is the new 6:0.8.3
steve@x1:~$ apt-cache policy libavcodec53
libavcodec53:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 6:0.8.3-6ubuntu1
Version table:
6:
500 http://
The example above holds for all libav*-extra packages.
