[Bug 1285729] Re: amarok needs to build-depend on libav packages for transcode support

[Aymeric PETIT]

@Daniel, I agree with you, it's just maybe it's not a dependency
building issue.

@Rohan, I tried to install k-r-e, amarok doesn't allow to transcode. 
The only way, for me to have transcode working on amarok is to install the original ffmpeg...
If you have any idea of package not installed by k-r-e neither listed in the first comment, available in ubuntu repository (no ppa) that could make transcode works again in amarok, tell me I can try.

For all,
If you don't have an iPod (which is know by amarok to be limited in file support), you can reproduce the bug with any simple usb key. 
If ffmpeg is installed, when you try to copy any song from "local collection" to the USB, amarok should ask in which format you want transcode.
If ffmpeg isn't installed, amarok will simply copy the song to usb key, without asking fro transcoding.
