But none as mature, as powerful. But that's beside the point anyway. > Anyway Blogdrake repo proposes a faac rpm ... Never heard of blogdrake, seems to be a Spanish-only site... I don't understand the difference between tainted and non-free anyway (without reading definitions what goes into what repo), and I guess most users don't either. and BTW: http://www.mageia.org/en/1/notes/ reads: ###### The Tainted repository includes packages under various licenses, free and nonfree ones, but the main criteria for packages in this repository is that they may infringe patents and copyright laws in some countries in the world (e.g. multimedia codecs needed to play various audio/video files, packages needed to play commercial video DVD… etc); [...] ###### So I absolutely don't understand why there is so much fuzz about this topic/so much contradiction. There already was a sane definition. non-free is a misnomer. It should be named after what the mass of users cares about, whether it is free & "safe" to use or whether it might cause problems. So tainted is the right repo to put it in. Change the definition back to that of Mageia 1 and you're done. ciao Christian
