libmatroska is a C++ library to parse Matroska files (*.mkv, *.mka). It
requires libebml [1].
libmatroska is present in most Linux distros [2]. It's also present in
Cygwin Ports, albeit at an earlier version, so Yaakov should have first
refusal at maintaining this. However, mkvtoolnix needs to be built
against a very specific version of libmatroska, so it makes sense for
the same person to maintain both packages.
Dave.
