Bug Description
Incorrect package description (and name) of gst-libav1.0 / gstreamer1.0-libav:
Refers to libav even though Ubuntu uses FFmpeg instead of libav:
------------
Package: gstreamer1.0-libav
...
Description: libav plugin for GStreamer
...

They are distinct projects:

The incorrect wording appears to be directly inherited from upstream:

So the package description and names in Ubuntu and in Debian appear to be wrong. They should replace 'libav' with 'ffmpeg' (although confusingly both provide 'libav*' libraries).

Thanks Daniel, could you maybe report the bug to Debian BTS since the changes should be done there as well
