[Bug 1501522] Review Request: fdk-aac - Third-Party Modified Version of the Fraunhofer FDK AAC Codec Library for Android
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 --- Comment #99 from Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) --- I will let the task to sort out what works and does not with this particular implementation on the gstreamer side, as only gstreamer will consume this library within Fedora as I expect. For the packaging side, I confirm that having a fdk-aac-free package with the current upstream SONAME unmodified in fedora is acceptable. Even having a virtual provides for fdk-aac (but no obsoletes). That's a compromise to avoid breaking our non-replacement policy (that others third part repositories don't follow). Along with not having existing end-users package replaced by a less featured version. Please keep in mind that as soon as RPM Fusion is concerned, we may NOT test if the Fedora library is at the same version as the RPM Fusion one, we may update the package according to the Fedora updates policy, so any future ABI changes will have to be taken into account on the Fedora side in the appropriate timing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The thing is nobody experienced in license review is actually expecting the FSF to declare this non-free. I know Tom doesn't and I know RH legal doesn't. So we are asking the FSF for a review out of an abundance of caution, but it is silly to hold up merging this feature due to an extremely unlikely outcome. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So it's a RF maintainer's duty to cope with the Fedora changes. I don't understand the second class citizen concept. I would more say that when a group of people helps, they should be taken with consideration and respect. Right now it's easy to install the fdk-aac codec fully backend upstream. Just enable the rpmfusion-nonfree repo and use dnf install fdk-aac What you describe simply does not exist. You are right to say that's I cannot enforce anyone from the community to work on something he doesn't like. But that argument apply to the fdk-aac reviewed plan in the first step. Because the proposal is based on "someone-else to do the complementary work", not him. And that person still do is not nominated yet. (would be welcomed) Of course bug occurring either side will have to be properly handled. My position is nothing else but: get someone to work on the complement package (even with an anonymous account).

(and I agree) * Since there was community disagreement on this point, I asked the Free Software Foundation to review the license and determine if it is Free or not in January 2018. * There has been no update on this (of any substance) since then. * I have reached out to the FSF a few times to check on status, and was told that they have a bit of a backlog. * At LibrePlanet 2018, I asked again, and they are checking on it for me. I do not personally believe there is any license or legal reason to hold on merging this into Fedora, however, if a community member disagrees and wishes to wait on the FSF, they may put the FE-Legal block on the package until that answer comes back. If the FSF provides clarity, I will add it to this ticket. Obviously, if they find it to be non-free (and this package is added to Fedora), it will be subsequently removed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 --- Comment #72 from Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart)--- Just for been clear. The original problem with fdk-aac was never about patent (at least on the 3rd party level). It's all about copyright. You are not changing anything to the copyright if the patent is expunged from the library. So, the library still has to be considered as non-floss The uncertainty about the license condition would still apply. Now about RPM Fusion. We have a non-replacement policy for fedora packages in our default enabled repositories. So if you still decide to introduce this broken package (both legally and technically), then we will move our fdk-aac to a side repository that will need to be explicitly enabled. As I haven't see anyone to volunteer to maintain the fdk-aac-nonfree complementary package. It means that you will provide that package by default to users. And I'm afraid that without the complementary package, many users will have a broken experience of he-aac with fedora. The point is. If the goal was to restore the support relying on the external repository policy.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart)changed: What|Removed |Added Blocks||182235 (FE-Legal) --- Comment #54 from Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) --- Blocking FE-Legal, as it describes more was the current situation is. Personally I would prefer this package to be free and in fedora, even partially. But it's clearly not the case. Not only, this package is GPL incompatible and I'm not going to re-state the detail on purpose here. So far, Fesco only approved this build "if" it's free. Fesco did not describe a method to make both ends works as appropriate WRT the packaging side, so the situation is still moot. The current proposal is in-appropriate. It only describes one end of the task and leave the other part of the work to someone else that yet isn't nominated. Worst, it will make the package to supersede the current version we package without bringing more value to fedora+rpmfusion users. Not replacing any "base distro" package is one core value of our project, so we cannot accept a situation where, even if nothing as changed in our side, we would be turned into a situation where we would not follow this non-replacement guideline anymore. The other issue is "how the packaging would be done", as this package is a fork of the original fdk-aac project. Because of the fork, both projects can live a different way and because we want to have full hands on the way we update the fdk-aac package based on the original project, we don't want to be in a situation where we would wait for a downstream fork for update in order to have a "coherent situation" WRT complementary packages and ABI, etc. As a coordinator of a third party project, I retain the rights not to provide, not to replace and not to complement any fdk-aac component that would be introduced in fedora by a packager without any coordination with our project. With that said, I would like to explicitly leave a room for anyone mandated to "do the complementary job" to use the rpmfusion packagers infra for such purpose. (provided that few restrictions are left on the infra side). This hold for the general kind of such issue and in a more general manner I would like to think on a written guideline to prevent such "half backed idea" to hit the fedora repos in the future. That, in order to strength the unwritten guideline of not re-using the package namespace if a fedora package is an incomplete version of a package that is already found on our well known repository. While at it, I still have an alternatives method in mind that would prevent this fdk-aac package to hit our "non-replacement policy". It would be to have a "side repo" similar to the openh264 case (or even to share the same repo). That way, it would be possible to enable such repository on user request, if our repository isn't enabled. As the consequence, none would have to deal with bugs introduced by the other party and to deal with the complementary mess.

At least since ~2008 the policy was not one that required FSF approval (or more precisely FSF designation as a free software license), if only because that would be impractical. However, there has traditionally been an effort to faithfully apply the FSF's own interpretation of the Free Software Definition. In one case I can vaguely remember, Fedora rejected a license as non-free, in the absence of an opinion from the FSF, but the FSF thereafter concluded that the same license was free. (I think this was the Yahoo! Public! License! version 1.0.) This same policy has led to some cases in which an OSI-approved license was rejected by Fedora as non-free, or a license that the OSI never approved was accepted by Fedora as free. I don't think we ever faced a situation in which Fedora accepted a license as free, in the absence of an FSF opinion, and later the FSF concluded that the same license was non-free. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

You can build fdk-aac-{stripped,free,patentfree,whatever} and fdk-aac-devel from the same package, either a fdk-aac.spec with no main package, or by using %package -n, or by using a virtual Provides (Provides: fdk-aac-devel in the %package devel of your fdk-aac-*.spec). So I still don't think shipping this as just fdk-aac is helpful, both for honesty to users and for upgrade path reasons. The model to follow is gstreamer-plugins-bad-free, not freetype, which is the way it is for historical reasons mostly. But of course this discussion is absolutely moot if the license turns out not to be acceptable to begin with.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 --- Comment #34 from Wim Taymans--- After some more thinking I think we need to try to achieve: 1) Be practical about what we can support and allow for tradeoffs between desired and allowed functionality. 2) Keep it simple, don't try to patch too much stuff or be too clever, don't requires relinking or different versions of apps etc.. 3) have things work somewhat reasonably by default in most cases 4) provide easy way to 'upgrade' to the real-but-non-free version if the user explicitly wants this What I propose is this: - Have fdk-aac be the default stipped version of the aac codec that we include in Fedora. The -devel packages etc will be fdk-aac-devel etc.. Similar to freetype - Have fdk-aac-freeworld in rpmfusion that installs the same .so in /usr/lib64/fdk-aac-freeworld/ and adds this path to /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ This is similar to freetype-freeworld, see comment #14, comment #15 - make rpmfusion packages Require: fdk-aac-freeworld. This would make apps installed from rpmfusion also pull in the -freeworld version with complete functionality. Practically: gstreamer1-plugins-bad would build against fdk-aac-devel and play a subset of aac files with full quality and others with reduced quality. Other apps can do the same. Installing the -freeworld package enables full quality in all apps. Updates SPEC and SRPMS with fixes for above review: https://people.freedesktop.org/~wtay/SPECS/fdk-aac.spec https://people.freedesktop.org/~wtay/SRPMS/fdk-aac-0.1.5-4.fc26.src.rpm Some answers: Comment #11: why not have fdk-aac-stripped? - Looking at freetype, and because the library is API and ABI compatible, it's better to have fdk-aac as the base name for the -devel and -debug. That way all packages can build against the more natural fdk-aac-devel and have the -freeworld package enhance it at runtime. Comment #12: yay, we can enable it in ffmpeg - build against fdk-aac and require fdk-aac-freeworld to pull in the full version when installing ffmpeg from rpmfusion. Comment #22 ffmpeg fails with fdk-aac! - ffmpeg would be installed from rpmfusion and pull in the fdk-aac-freeworld package and thus would work correctly because it decodes and encodes with full quality. Comment #7, Comment #31 it doesn't do everything, why bother? Comment #25, it doesn't work as advertised, convince me.. - The argument is that we can decode all AAC files, some with reduced quality/functionality (not unlike the reduced quality of freetype, albeit arguably more noticeable by non-experts). The path to full quality is the same as it was before. On a scale from 0 to 10 we go from a solid 0 to a positive score >0, which is an infinite increase in betterness :). - The question of "why doesn't this sound as good as it does on $OTHER_OS" is the same as "why do my fonts look so much worse than on $OTHER_OS". It can be an educational moment instead of something to avoid. Comments that fail rule 2: Comment #20, Comment #21, Comment #27 patching GStreamer elements or parsers to somehow force the installation of fdk-aac-freeworld. - Arguably we could then even put the automatic installation of the library inside the stripped fdk-aac library when it detects reduced functionality and have things work outside of GStreamer as well. We could add a Provides: fdk-aac-full in the rmpfusion version and ask the installer to install something that provides fdk-aac-full, or something like that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 --- Comment #32 from Olivier Crête--- From the GStremer point of view, doing what Christian wants is easy, the steps that need to happen are: 1. Import aacparse to recognize the HE-AAC profiles that the cut down fdk-aac doesn't support. It's a bit of bitstream parsing, but nothing too complex for Wim ;) 2. Change the soname of the cut-down fdk-aac library 3. Fork the GStreamer plugin with a different name, more restricted caps and a lower rank Then if you have files that it can play, it will just work without rpmfusion. For other caps that the crippled fdk-aac can't handle, the plugin install magic will still work and fetch it from rpmfusion or wherever. Once the rpmfusion plugin is installed, it will just hide the fdk-aac one. For applications that don'T use GStreamer, well, that's too sad for them! P.S. I guess you can alwasy keep the same soname and have the GStreamer plugin recognize which one is installed in a way that changes the rank and caps when the rpmfusion one is installed, I'm just not sure how feasible it is to replace a rpm with another like this with current rpm/dnf/packagekit. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Otherwise FFmpeg's aac codec is good enough for all other use cases. We already have gstreamer1-libav in RPMFusion covering these, so having a crippled fdk-aac in Fedora is no gain.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 --- Comment #22 from Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski--- Ok, I tested ffmpeg-3.3.4 compiled against this stripped library and I don't think it's a good idea to have this in Fedora at all. Playback of the reference HE-AAC file (https://www2.iis.fraunhofer.de/AAC/SBRtestStereoAot29Sig2.mp4) is wrong with ffplay -acodec libfdk_aac (compared to FFmpeg's built-in aac decoder). In my opinion, until we can include the unmodified code, it makes no sense for Fedora to ship it. I'm attaching two wave files produced from the above mp4 file with: ffmpeg -c:a libfdk_aac -i ./SBRtestStereoAot29Sig2.mp4 ./SBRtestStereoAot29Sig2-fdk_aac-stripped.wav ffmpeg -i ./SBRtestStereoAot29Sig2.mp4 ./SBRtestStereoAot29Sig2-aac.wav You can hear the difference yourselves (top frequencies are not decoded and simply missing in the first case). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Whoever is going to take care of it should take a close look at how the freetype-freeworld and qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld packages I maintain are set up and do the same. (And to give credit where credit is due, I did not invent this scheme, I myself copied it from the atlas-sse* packages and the old (pre-glvnd) nvidia driver packaging.) > Do you also reflect the stripping in the GStreamer caps to try to install the > rpmfusion version on higher profiles ? How so? The GStreamer plugin would not change at all between the fdk-aac versions because they are drop-in replacements of each other, just with a different (smaller or larger) feature set compiled in. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501522 --- Comment #15 from Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski--- After some reading (wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Fraunhofer_FDK_AAC) and closer look at the diff between this and original source, I'm afraid important features are missing and hence I'd like to ask the submitter to accommodate the existing package in RPMFusion and name this differently than fdk-aac (for example, fdk-aac-free) or at least do the necessary legwork for RPMFusion package and send a patch to rename to -freeworld and support parallel installation like Kevin said in comment #14. It'd be great if you could become co-maintainer there, too, to coordinate updates. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The advantage of doing a -freeworld (set up like freetype-freeworld or qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld) is that it should be possible (assuming the stripping does not break the ABI) to replace the stripped Fedora version with the complete RPM Fusion version at runtime, without recompiling dependent packages. (freetype-freeworld and qt5-qtwebengine-freeworld don't even include a -devel package, you just build against the Fedora version and make sure you don't have an rpath on %{_libdir}, ld.so does the rest.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

But if the 3rd party repos enable fdk-aac in ffmpeg with the striped version, I have doubts of it; We could get something incomplete. Other problem, ffmpeg is part of packages who requires massive rebuild (yes in "so" bump); but exist the possibilty of constantly changes = contantly rebuilds... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
