or so for some streams until the info comes along). Now the

So my view on this is that we should have a second repo hosted on
logitech's site which contains all the recognised 3rd party plugins
which are not recommended.
To do this just requires addition to the script which builds the
recommended repo and addition of this new repo to the main install.
