Needs work Ermakov Alexander at Feb. 25, 2026, 2:55 a.m.

Depends:
...
 ffmpeg,

Is this really necessary for a LIBRARY?

Ermakov Alexander at Feb. 25, 2026, 2:58 a.m.

Hi Ermakov, thanks again for your review! I have fixed d/watch and made a new upload.

Regarding the dependencies on programs, BoCA will use external programs and libraries for transcoding during runtime.  See [1] for a list of programs that it uses (I only added the ones available in Debian main).
