libvpx added
thanks to Nobody for pointing out libvpx has released 0.9.1, which incorporates some changes that were needed to cross-compile and build properly against FFmpeg. the library has, as usual, also been added to http://apt.arrozcru.org

pthreads updated.
The pthreads package was updated to fix a bug in the dependencies (gcc was hardcoded to 4.2). There should be no functional changes.
apt repository now requires GPG key
The apt repository now requires that you add my gpg key to your system. Follow http://ffmpeg.arrozcru.org/wiki/index.php?title=Aptrepository
mingw32-libmp3lame_20091220-1 is gone.
The package mingw32-libmp3lame_20091220-1 has been removed from the apt repository. It was getting in the way when someone did “apt-get install mingw32-*”. The latest version of libmp3lame would not be used.
polarssl used instead of openssl
Apparently openssl is GPL-incompatible. For this reason, and because it was such a huge library, I have removed openssl support, and now I use polarssl for librtmp. Package added to the apt repository.

Update text files
Text files (Changelog, README, and the licenses) now have a .txt extension and have CRLF line endings. These are windows packages after all, and it didn’t make sense to expect users to use anything more developed than notepad to read the files.
About webm/vp8 support
Webm/VP8 support is NOT enabled in the autobuilds. There are currently two issues holding it up:
1- muxing/encoding is still not in FFmpeg SVN.
2- The library has a license incompatible with the GPL. For the same reason as FAAC, I will not include libvpx while its license remains incompatible.
