Well, it looks as if "make check" is not the preferred way of testing ffmpeg.
Rather, one should download about 750 MB of video samples and run a specific
test program on them (that can be built and run with "make fate"); see the
replies to the bug report.

For Guix, it does not seem to be reasonable to either download 750 MB of
test data, or to package them, so I would suggest to disable the tests
for now.

What do you think?

Andreas
