Multiverse needed

[allaire]

This should depends on ubuntu cookbook to install multiverse repos

Also, why not installing FFMpeg from package?

apt_repository "ffmpeg" do
  uri "http://ppa.launchpad.net/jon-severinsson/ffmpeg/ubuntu"
  distribution node["lsb"]["codename"]
  components ["main"]
  keyserver "keyserver.ubuntu.com"
  key "C300EE8C"
end

apt_package "ffmpeg" do
  options "--force-yes"
  :upgrade
end```

Hi @allaire,

thanks for getting in touch!

In order to install from the multiverse repos, I'd recommend writing a wrapper cookbook around this one.

Also: if you'd rather want to install from package than from source, you can make use of the package-recipe...

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,
David

@djoos I think we should add the apt repo that ffmpeg propose on their website for the package option, since it's now not available in ubuntu 14.04 anymore!

Ok, that makes sense @allaire - would you mind sending over a PR?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
David
