I see that livna has transcode 1.0.0-0.lvn.3.3 in their unstable repo since 28th September, so its obviously being tested out.
Then, if mjpegtools depends on a unstable transcode version, it would have been wiser not having made mjpegtools.i386 0:1.8.0-0.lvn.1.4 available on the stable repository.
You are reading that backwards. Transcode depends on libmjpegtools not the other way around.
The transcode package installed specifically requires libmjpegutils-1.7.so.0 and since the libmjpegutils library is being updated and would remove that file, it fails because doing so would break the installed dependency.
This may be a transcode issue for requiring an explicit library file, but appears to be related to the installed version, not the unstable/testing version.
Thanks, Jeff. Meanwhile, I uninstalled transcode and mjpegtools. Then, I Installed mjpegtools again and, subsequently, transcode, and the reported problem of dependencies disappeared.
