That's great Roman! I have also been working on packaging, with the aim of getting things into Debian. Then they'll go into Ubuntu too. We should try to get a Debian Developer to sponsor the gmerlin stuff so that it gets included. Its used by Gem too.
i have followed the gmerlin-avdecoder integration into debian a little bit, and it seems like everybody who seriously tried, gave up after a few rounds. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555852
the problem is, that the code has loads of code not copyrighted by burkhard and therefore there is no debian-conformant copyright file (yet).
however, the above post also suggests that finding a sponsor shouldn't be too hard.
