I was trying to track down the status of OpenMandriva Lx 3 because it's listed as a downstream for ffmpeg 4.0. While doing this I noticed that Lx 3 is EOL as of 2019-07-16. The current active version of OpenMandriva is Lx 4.3, and it seems to be packaging ffmpeg 5.0 based on https://openmandriva.pkgs.org/4.3/openmandriva-main-release-x86_64/ffmpeg-5.0-1-omv4050.x86_64.rpm.html

I'm not directly familiar with OpenMandriva I was just chasing up the 4.0 relationship. I updated the wiki based on this information but it would be good for someone familiar with OpenMandriva to confirm. Based on that it might make sense to keep 5.0 and consider moving 4.0 to old downloads.
