Comment (by rjvbertin@…):

 I'll see if I can get this to work then, but most likely not before next
 week.

 > I would just like to request that you install this special ffmpeg
 version in a unique subdirectory in the MacPorts tree so that it doesn't
 conflict with the stable ffmpeg version.

 Well, that was exactly what I planned to do. Evidently the goal would be
 not to conflict with the "real" FFMpeg port.

 As to VLC and libVLC: I've thought about that, but you've probably seen
 that there's no way to build just libVLC. For port:libVLC I just delete
 everything not related to the library in the post-destroot. There also is
 no way to build the rest VLC against an existing libVLC, so basically we'd
 be looking at a port which builds everything twice, and then throws away a
 considerable part of each build. That's not so much of an issue for the
 build bots, but with a port that has so many options there must be more
 than a few users even with the /opt/local prefix who end up building from
 source.

 In case it isn't clear: port:VLC does provide libVLC, so a dependency on
 that library can be satisfied by either port:libVLC or port:VLC .
