Update to 2.68a

[CSRedRat]

Please update Blender to 2.68a in saucy: http://www.blender.org/development/release-logs/blender-268/ http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Jeremy Bícha (jbicha)]

The latest version fails to build on Saucy; perhaps it's because we haven't done the libav9 transition yet.

Hi There,

I just got the lates source form svn and I still see this problem on ubantu 12.04. Do you think I am missing something? The error is below:

I faced the same problem when backporting to Debian/Stable (Wheezy).

It seems that you'll actually need a libAV* of the 9er series. For Debian, these are in available through the backports repository. In my, case, on Debian/Stable, I did the following upgrades

apt-get install libavcodec54=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libopus0=1.1-1~bpo70+1 libavutil52=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1
apt-get install libavcodec-extra-54=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1
apt-get install libswscale-dev=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libswscale2=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1
apt-get install libavutil-dev=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libavdevice-dev=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libavformat-dev=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libavcodec-dev=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libavdevice53=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1 libavformat54=6:9.10-1~bpo70+1

Obviously, the exact version numbers might vary, but you should try to get some 9.x versions known to work together for each of the libavcodecs libavcodecs-extra libavformat, libavutil and libswscale
