--- Comment #65 from Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski <domi...@greysector.net> --- (In reply to Kevin Kofler from comment #61) [...] > The problem is that the third-party repository was previously shipping a > different codec, the built-in one from FFmpeg, as the default, with nicer > licensing and better FFmpeg integration.

That fits my definition of a > broken decoder exactly. I already said that and both Wim and FESCo said they're fine with that. There's no need to repeat things ad nauseam. > (In reply to Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski from comment #60) > > (In reply to Kevin Kofler from comment #57) > > > We still don't know the outcome of comment #52 (license review by the > > > FSF). > > > > That's irrelevant. RH legal already cleared it. > > So you would be happy to ship something the FSF considers non-free? I wouldn't, but FSF hasn't spoken on this matter yet, as far as I know. Can you provide a link to a public statement by FSF saying otherwise? I don't see the FDK AAC license on https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html and I trust spot's opinion that it's unlikely they will consider it non-free. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
