  The following packages have been kept back:
     libav-tools libavdevice53 libavfilter2
  0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.

  When I tried upgrading any of the three packages mentioned,
  I got a message that ffmpeg would be removed.
  When I then tried un-installing libav I got the same message.

  When I tried using Synaptic to reinstall libav-tools, it refused to
  reinstall, with the following message:

  libav-tools:
   Depends: libavcodec53 but it is not going to be installed or
       libavcodec-extra-53 (>=4:0.8.12) but 4:0.8.10ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed
    Depends: libavdevice53 (>=4:0.8.12-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) but 4:0.8.10-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed or
       libavdevice-extra-53 but it is not going to be installed
    Depends: libavfilter2 (>=4:0.8.12-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) but 4:0.8.10-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed or
       libavfilter-extra-2 but it is not going to be installed
   Depends: libavformat53 but it is not going to be installed or
       libavformat-extra-53 (>=4:0.8.12) but 4:0.8.10ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed
   Depends: libavutil51 but it is not going to be installed or
       libavutil-extra-51 (>=4:0.8.12) but 4:0.8.10ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed
   Depends: libpostproc52 but it is not going to be installed or
       libpostproc-extra-52 (>=4:0.8.12) but 4:0.8.10ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed
   Depends: libswscale2 but it is not going to be installed or
       libswscale-extra-2 (>=4:0.8.12) but 4:0.8.10ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed

  Leaping into the unknown, I manually installed the missing dependencies:
  sudo apt-get install libavcodec53 libavdevice53 libavfilter2 libavformat53 libavutil51 libswscale2
  (Not all that brave; I have a two-days-old full system backup...)

  Problem seems to have been solved. There seem have been undefined/uninstalled dependencies somewhere.
  Possible related to bug #1273203
