* Really use dh_xine and depend on ${xine-ffmpeg:Depends} (Closes:
#575122)

I believe this is the crux of the issue in that libxine is still in
Maverick whereas it has been dropped in sid/unstable. (refers to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=575122 ) this will be
an issue! in future releases so the change was made to accommodate this.
it does build without error in sid/unstable.

I've been able to reproduce the same error building it here locally
within Lucid (pbuilder) I should have checked this prior to requesting
the sync.

I'm open for suggestions, but I don't want to revert the config back to
the prior as this will lead to a broken dependency in the future.

Xine-lib isn't in maverick so this is the cause of the make error...

https://edge.launchpad.net/bugs/603059 will resolve this bug ...

sorry xine-lib is in maverick but its at version 1.1.17

libxine1-x is NOT going away. libxine1's dependencies on it and libxine1-console will be going away once squeeze is released, assuming that the transition is completed.

Hmm I'm now confused! as the changes done to Me TV in Debian compile and
its all good, the version of xine-lib in maverick is only at 1.1.17-4
so I made the request for the newer version to be merged into Maverick
and this will solve the issue. I too was of the same opinion of Julian
for the change in Debian (me-tv_1.3.0-1)

So Darren, are you saying we have the packaging incorrect in Debian
(wrong dependency) or that I should just maintain the dependencies in
ubuntu as they were? and not use the newer dependencies that involve...

(rules)
#!/usr/bin/make -f

as I have made packages for karmic, lucid & Maverick this way but the
newer version in unstable is using the aboved mentioned parts in
rules/control

Any further info would be great thanks ;-)

No, he just says that libxine1-x is not going away, only libxine1's
dependency on it. We require libxine1-x, but only depended on libxine1;
and that would break after the libxine1-x dependency has been removed
from libxine1.

Using dh_xine instead of depending on libxine1-x allows us to easily
switch to xine 1.2 where the package is called libxine2-x (due to ABI
breakage); without requiring a new source upload.

Now that the merge request for xine-lib has gone through see Bug #603059
Me TV should now build without error ...
