SPEC:
http://rpms.kwizart.net/fedora/reviews/libmpeg2/libmpeg2.spec
Description: MPEG-2 decoder libraries

mpeg2dec has been renamed to libmpeg2.
This release is ABI compatible with the previous one (checked with rpmsodiff),
thus I think we should only import and build libmpeg2 in rpmfusion.
mpeg2dec have been splitted into another package. This will make it multilibs
compliant and prevent the libX* library to be bring as a dependency when it is
uneeded. Package calling mpeg2dec will need to add Requires: mpeg2dec

There is a potential problem when a package links against this version, since
headers have been moved from /usr/include/mpeg2dec to /usr/include/libmpeg2.
Package that hardcode the headers as <mpeg2dec/mpeg2.h> and
<mpeg2dec/mpeg2convert.h> will fail. Instead, they need to check for pkgconfig
to detect the header path.

Packages that use libmpeg2 are:
gstreamer-plugins-ugly
transcode
vlc (will need a fix)
