[CentOS] Can we use gstreamer bad, ugly and ffmpeg packages ( installed using binary rpms) without any legal problems

2010-10-20 Thread praveenya kumar
Hi

We are using centos 5.3 Operating system. It comes with basic gstreamer
setup including gstreamer, gstreamer-tools, gstreamer-plugins-base and
gstreamer-plugins-good packages. To support different media formats we had
to install gstreamer-plugins-bad, gstreamer-plugins-ugly and
gstreamer-plugins-ffmpeg from third party repository like rpmfusion as
centos repository is not providing these packages. My question is, Can we
use these packages ( bad, ugly and ffmpeg) without any legal or licensing
issues? If No, Please tell the legal way of using them.

thanks

The only person who can answer that question definitively is your 
lawyer; Also, it depends on where you are, where you machine is, where 
your code is and how/ what you are doing with it. So, speak to your 
lawyer. (S)He's the person who will need to prep your legal case should 
it ever come to that.
