Bug Description
[Impact]
* ffmpeg was removed from the repositories. imagination used it to export the slideshow to video. Currently all exports fail with "cannot launch 'ffmpeg', (no such file or directory)"
[Test Case]
* Create a new slideshow and attempt to export it "Slideshow" > "Export"
* With the version in trusty, you will see an error dialog stating: "cannot launch 'ffmpeg', (no such file or directory)"
* With the version in trusty-proposed, the slideshow will be exported to a video file.
[Regression Potential]
* Little regression potential as exports do not currently work at all.
[Other Info]
* Fixed in Debian and utopic in 3.0-5
-------------
Tried on Ubuntu 14.04.
All exports fail with "cannot launch 'ffmpeg', (no such file or directory)"
I workarounded it by installing libav-tools and then:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/avconf /usr/bin/ffmpeg

This is already fixed in Debian and Utopic with version 3.0-5 (Trusty has 3.0-3).
This should be suitable for a SRU, no?
