Since ffmpeg-0.6.90_rc0, gnash fails to link:

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

According to the ffmpeg changelog, av_parser_parse() has been marked as deprecated. media-video herd, please advise.

possible fix

This patch makes gnash build against ffmpeg-0.6.90_rc0. But I am not sure whether it is the correct solution.

your fix is correct but this function not being available indicates a bug in ffmpeg, I'll send a patch upstream for it
(at least ffmpeg-0.6 supports av_parser_parse2, didnt check older versions)

ah, this is already fixed in git, I'll backport it and push a -r1

In ffmpeg-0.8 this was removed for good. I added patches to gnash so it no longer uses the deprecated symbols.
