do you rely on anything in libquicktime1 that is not present in libquicktime2? afaik, they are API compatible, so a simple recompile should be possible (or does "tarball" stand for a binary release in tarball form?)
GF 9.11 (and some versions before) had both binary tarballs and source tarballs. That's because we had figured that building binary tarballs was easier than trying to make debs for every release that happened every 6 months in the last N years. But we weren't so sure about it. Claude offered Launchpad packages for 3 dists and or 2 platforms. It was good news, but it only happened once. After that, for 9.13, I spent a whole day on Launchpad stuff with Patrick Boivin, and we were not able to finish producing any deb file.
