Understood.

However, I'm not sure, that I got this sentence correctly:

English is not my native language... Do you mean "Build against regular libavcodec-dev and then replace this libavcodec-dev by libavcodec-unstripped-52"?. Or, should I replace libavcodec-unstripped-52 by something?

Side note: I'm pretty sure, kradio does not require "unstripped" libav*-dev packages.. However, I can't install "regular" ones as well, if I have "kubuntu-restricted-extras" installed (and I have it, since it's useful for me), because they conflict.

That's the problem..
