[Libav-user] ffmpeg 2.0 aacdec.c depends on ape?

[John Orr]

The ffmpeg 2.0 version of libavformat\aacdec.c now contains some 
reference to APE.  In includes apetag.h and calls ff_ape_parse_tag().  
It did not do that in ffmpeg 1.2.

When I tried to upgrade from 1.2 to 2.0, I found I had a link failure.  
When I compile ffmpeg for my own purposes, I usally disable most 
demuxers and decoders.  In particular, I disable APE, but enable AAC.  
With FFMPEG 1.2, that worked fine.  With FFMPEG 2.0, ffmpeg fails to 
link unless I enable the APE demuxer.

For the time being I can use --enable-demuxer=ape when I configure.

I wasn't sure if this was intentional and now aacdec formally depends on 
APE, or if it was an oversite.
