Hello,

Would it be acceptable to ship ziomon in universe, instead of in main (and thus installed by default)?

The reason behind this is the dependency chain.

The proposed patch adds a Depends on "blktrace", which is in universe, and in turn depends on libtheora-bin & libav-tools (both in universe).

libav-tools come from a highly vulnerable package, which Ubuntu Security team deems as unsupportable.

I shall look into unwinding / reducing these dependencies, to have a possibility of including ziomon in main without the feature to generate H.264 videos.

Regards,

Dimitri.
