Bug Description

On a current Ubuntu 5.10, the ffmpeg-export from transcode doesn't work.

$ transcode -x vob -i 001 -w 800,50 -F mpeg4 -f 25 -y ffmpeg -o 001.avi
[...]
[import_vob.so] v0.6.0 (2003-10-02) (video) MPEG-2 | (audio) MPEG/AC3/PCM | (subtitle)
[transcode] warning : /usr/lib/transcode/export_ffmpeg.so: undefined symbol: dts_init
[transcode] warning : (dl_loader.c) loading "/usr/lib/transcode/export_ffmpeg.so" failed
[transcode] warning : (encoder.c) loading audio export module failed
[transcode] warning : failed to init export modules
[transcode] critical: plug-in initialization failed

Looks like the package ist at least partly broken, a fix would be really great.

This looks very similar to bug #3964 and bug #3399

At the start of the bug the reporter did mention they were using:
"On a current Ubuntu 5.10"
which if I'm not mistaken is breezy.

1.0.1 on Ubuntu Breezy (5.10)

I can confirm that this bug has been fixed dapper. (version 2:1.0.1-0.0ubuntu2).

Providing a backport for breezy is not easy due to the huge pile of unstable libraries providing a only static libs. And since there are other issues with transcode, too, I'm rather focusing on that
