This bug was fixed in the package ffmpeg - 4:0.6.1-5ubuntu2

---------------
ffmpeg (4:0.6.1-5ubuntu2) natty; urgency=low

  * Replace cp with tar to avoid an error of "/bin/cp: Argument list too long" on the ARM platform (running under a QEMU chroot environment) (LP: #734331)
    - Check on a Ubuntu "pbuilder" environment on Ubuntu 10.10/maverick x86
    - Restore a "Doxygen" file that excidentaly got into the changeset of the bug
