I went to look for the sources to X11 amp on
ftp.debian.org and they are missing. I remember
downloading the source packages a few months ago, but
now a package search on debian.org shows them missing.
What happened?

mpg123 is in non-free because of its license. I did not find any
documentation anywhere that indicated that x11amp uses an

But that is not the reason why my first guess was non-free. It was
the fact that mpg123 is in non-free, and x11amp is (according to

Hi,
I saw the new alpha version, that has acceptable licence (GPL).
Although it's alpha, I'd like to see it packaged. If you aren't
