Comment:

Remove "--depth 1" on git-clone for libx265 because repository informations seems necessary to generate x265.pc file (search for "X265_LATEST_TAG" pattern in repository)

-'''Warning:''' Manual x265 builds are currently broken and cannot be used by ffmpeg. Please use the version provided by `apt` instead.
+'''Warning:''' Currently and unlike other libraries, you have to get the full libx265 repository (so remove `--depth 1` argument in git clone). Indeed, it will be longer, but it is necessary to allow generating x265.pc file, which is needed to build ffmpeg with `--enable-libx265`. Without this, ffmpeg build will be broken.

+If you cannot, or don't want to get the full libx265 repository, please use the version provided by `apt` instead.
