From: Yann Dirson <[email protected]>
The rationale here is that if the user can only whitelist "commercial"
to use any part of ffmpeg, even it the list of features is carefully
reviewed when switching the whitelisting on, there was nothing to
guard from inadvertently activating a new feature that would not have
been reviewed.
This patch adds one LICENSE_FLAGS value for each feature, except for
those that bring no codec, trying to be on the same level of legal
safety - but then I may miss something.
I tried to leave out of the safe NONCOMMERCIAL_PACKAGECONFIGS list
anything that brings a codec, notably libavcodec. I also did not look
at non-default features yet.
There may still be a problem if any feature in ffmpeg gets activated
by default upstream and not registed as a PACKAGECONFIG feature. At
least any of those that depend on another lib would not be enabled,
that could be seen as a sufficient safeguard.
