I tested the ao update which was obviously fine, but libvpx broke
gst-plugins-good. Its nice to know that pulseaudio doesn't break anything, I
assumed I was looking at a 2+ hour build session to really test it so I'm
glad I didn't have to be the one to do it in the end :) Debian managed to
upgrade libvpx to 1.5.0 with gstreamer at 1.6.3 so I'm a bit curious about
how they managed that.
