NOTICE for Package Maintainers
------------------------------
- It is recommended to build FFmpeg twice, first with minimal external dependencies so
that 3rd party packages, which depend on FFmpegs libavutil/libavfilter/libavcodec/libavformat
can then be built. And last build FFmpeg with full dependancies (which may in turn depend on
some of these 3rd party packages). This avoids circular dependencies during build.
