why must i uninstall libavcodec53 and libavutil51 to install ubuntu restricted extras
- by honestann
When I try to install "ubuntu restricted extras" in "ubuntu software center", it displays a warning dialog that says the following items must be removed:
libavcodec53
libavutil51
Why? And if I choose to install "ubuntu restricted extras", what will I lose?
PS: I think I noticed libavcodec53 flash past as my daily build of codeblocks package was installing... so that's one possibility. Will I break my software development environment if I install "ubuntu restricted extras"?
Or do these packages need to be removed because they are included in "ubuntu restricted extras"? If so, why doesn't the dialog mention that (and remove the worry and confusion)?
PS: The output generated by "apt-get -s install ubuntu-restricted-extras" is HERE.
