check debian/strip.sh in the ffmpeg-debian package

well, that's how all packages in debian and ubuntu are currently
built. I fail to see the problem here?

I can only recommend building packages in clean chroots...


The only valid use case for this request I could imagine would be if
there was some packages that really requires the
libavcodec-unstripped-52 installed and does not work with libavcodec52
at all. I haven't seen such a package so far, though...
