updating to the new aom version will wind up pulling in GIMP, if you
don't already have it installed, and GIMP pulls in Python 2.x and GTK+
2.x if you don't have those installed. That's a lot of unwanted
packages.
I suppose the intention here is so that someone who installs the library for
this format gets it automatically working in Gimp. Maybe some of the
new-fangled rich dependencies would be be better than a "Recommends".
