Nixpkgs: Drop old ffmpegs

[grahamc]

ffmpeg 1.x and 0.x aren't maintained anymore.

Things depending on 1.x:

• accousticFingerprinter
• baresip
• freerdpStable

Things depending on 0.10:

• spotify
• ultrastardx
• gst_ffmpeg*

freerdpStable can be dropped - it's so bugridden that it's practically unusable.

gst_ffmpeg is part of legacy gstreamer which is still in use by quite a few packages.

[grahamc]

Yeah, this ticket is more aspirational than anything else. Maybe in a year someone will say "(triage) no activity in a year, closing" and then I can say "but... but..." and then maybe I'll be able to drop at least 1.x. :P (hi, future contributor.)

ffmpeg isn't mentioned in the deb file of Spotify as a requirement, so I guess we don't need it either. I just 'rebuild' Spotify without and it seems to be working just fine.

I looked at Spotify package in AUR[1] and it seems that ffmpeg is used for playing local files.

@FRidh it is used for local playback. I did a quick test to see if it runs with the default ffmpeg version, but it doesn't. So I guess there's not much we can do for now :/

[FRidh]

ah, local playback wasn't part of my test :)
