I needed a version of ffmpeg that worked with the latest version of DeVeDe and I couldn't managed to compile it, so a day or two ago I added the lucid-bleed PPA to my sources, and I re-installed mplayer and mencoder, so they might also be from that PPA. now DeVeDe works, so I'm happy -- however, this morning update-manager came up with a few dozen things it wanted to update.

so I'm not interested in anything bleeding-edge, I deselected http://ppa.launchpad.net/lucid-bleed/ppa/ubuntu from the Other Sources repos. do I need to be concerned about anything? is there a chance something will come along and try to un-update these now-working versions of ffmpeg, mplayer, and mencoder?

you should not worry. If you are afraid, then lock that ffmpeg package via synaptic

note: bleeding ppa was opened in early Lucid dev time, so long ago. Now newest packages come via "backport" archives into synaptic.
