Package name : openfec Version : 1.4.2.4 Upstream Author : Victor Gaydov <vic...@enise.org> et al URL : http://www.example.org/ License : CeCILL-C Programming Lang: C Description : Forward Error Correction codes Application-Level Forward Error Correction codes add redundancy in order to be able to recover from erasures. this library is required by the Roc Project, whose PipeWire modules are currently disabled. With the addition of this dependency, we will be able to build roc-toolkit, and thus enable the PipeWire Roc sink and source. indeed, this active fork of the original OpenFEC is maintained by Roc. It uses a CeCILL-C license; see [0] for discussion on debian-legal. In addition, small parts come under Radford Neal's LDPC simulator license and Luigi Rizzo's Reed-Solomon license ([1]); I have reviewed both, and they seem trivially compatible with the DFSG. As a lowly DM, I'll be uploading this through a Sponsor, Dylan Aïssi from the Utopia team. [0] https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2017/03/msg00019.html [1] http://openfec.org/patents.html
