Bug Description

All Transcode Package versions
All Ubuntu Releases

The Transcode package depends on Gawk, It instead depend on generic awk. It also could depend on '| Mawk', if that would be preferred. I've reviewed the .awk scripts, they all run as expected in Mawk. I also read documents upstream, they seem to indicate nothing about requiring Gawk specifically.

  [ Alessio Treglia ]
  * Depends on mawk | gawk, awk scripts don't seem to require
    any gawk-specific feature. (LP: #997226)
  * Bump Standards.

  [ Fabian Greffrath ]
  * Pass --enable-libmpeg2convert to configure to fix MPEG2
    decoding (Closes: #688618).
  * Remove myself from Uploaders.
  * Remove "-vpre medium" from ffmpeg's arguments list to avoid
    crashes as the "medium" preset doesn't exist. (Closes: #681436)
