I'm sorry, but where has this been discussed ?

Now that we have regular releases, why are we back at taking snapshots
of some random subset of it ? Moreover some random subset that has not
yet merged some commits from ffmpeg back from february...

if ffmpeg has not removed libpostproc, maybe there's a reason, that
reason might be that they still want to maintain it in their own tree...

im reverting your commit atm, with a proper temporary solution for the
virtual; feel free to write the || dep for the 3 or 4 packages that
need postproc if you want to make it optional.
