I've run into problems with libfaad being missing before. Here's the
real question: how were the ffmpeg and ffmpeg-libs *built*, if a libfaad package isn't available in the repository?
I just use rpmforge's and never have issues. It's not always the latest
version, but I've always been able to do everything with it that I need.
*sigh* My manager doesn't want us to use rpmforge (though he'll make an exception, at least for my testing, for kmod-nvidia, and even then, he wants it disabled *except* for updating that).
Is he aware of the rearrangement of the rpmforge repository? See http://repoforge.org/faq/ (and note what is in an updated rpmforge-release.rpm). Regardless, I just keep the yum repo files set to enabled=0 and explicitly use --enablerepo= on the yum command line when I want to install or update something from there.
