It's needed for any x86 hardware (both 32 and 64 bit). It has no= thing to do
with OS X.

I see. From the documentatio= n (= https://libav.org/documentation/platform.html#Unix_002dlike) I was unde= r the impression that GNU assembler was used on most Unix-like platforms.

It's currently not possible to specify this dependency only for x86 and=
compared to gst-libav the cross-nasm packages is very small, so I never
bothered to create some workaround for this.

OK, thank you for the information, this is helpful.=C2=A0
