[Bug 480713] [NEW] "AVI open: avilib - Not an AVI file" when avimerge mp3 file into avi/xvid

[Rene]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: transcode-utils

steps: ONLY in ubuntu 9.10 KARMIC
$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
Release:	9.10
$ apt-cache policy transcode-utils
transcode-utils:
  Installed: 3:1.1.4-0.0ubuntu4
  Candidate: 3:1.1.4-0.0ubuntu4
  Version table:
 *** 3:1.1.4-0.0ubuntu4 0
        500 http://ftp.free.org karmic/multiverse Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

1) produce video.avi (which is xvid video stream only using mencode)
2) prodice audio0.mp3 (which is produced with lame -b 128)

What I get:
$ avimerge -i video.avi -p audio.mp3 -o video-audio.avi
scanning file video.avi for video/audio parameter
[avilib] V: 25.000 fps, codec=XVID, frames=175012, width=640, height=360
merging audio audio.mp3 track 0 (multiplexing) into 0 ...
[avilib.c] AVI open: avilib - Not an AVI file
$

check point.
a)using same input file on jaunty (second PC) with transcode 1.0.7 => no problem
b)using compiled transcode 1.0.7 on karmic => no problem

so yes, I have a workaround, by compiling myself, BUT THERE IS A BUG IN
THE KARMIC PACKAGE

$ avimerge107 -i video.avi -p audio.mp3 -o video-audio.avi
scanning file video.avi for video/audio parameter
[avilib] V: 25.000 fps, codec=XVID, frames=175012, width=640, height=360
merging audio audio.mp3 track 0 (multiplexing) into 0 ...
... this looks like a MP3 track ...
[video-audio.avi] (000000-175011)
... done multiplexing in video-audio.avi
