This reverts commit792845e436, reversing changes made to1d6666a6b8. Bumping libavutil requires all libraries that use libavutil to have their major version bumped (yes breakage has been confirmed this is not a hypotheses) One case of breakage is due to new types being added to AVOptions and applications that linked to old libavutil and libswresample then trying to use old libavutil (its soname changed so the old isnt updated) and new swresample (its soame didnt change so it is updated) the new swresample contains AVOption types that the old libavutil doesnt know of thus the application attempting to access these avoptions fails AVOptions are used by all libs so the issue can potentially happen with any other lib, libswresample was just the first that showed the problem ive not checked if the other libs are affected currently by the same issue or not Also in addition to AVOptions, AVFrames are also defined in libavutil, bumping it without all libs that use AVFrames could lead to serious inconsistencies when 2 libs/app end up using 2 different libavutils The alternative of bumping all is still possible after this revert, if it turns out to be the preferred solution
