Distributions might be an issue because of the libraries the package relies on, especially if you want to ship proprietary plugins for GStreamer. GStreamer is mostly LGPL, but if you start mixing GPL bits or libraries with it, it becomes GPL; that's why it "might" be problematic. I think the description represents pretty well the upstream one; we have no problem distributing this package or the available build-deps in Debian main -- the ftpmasters gave the green light on inclusion obviously. Perhaps we should make it clearer which distribution issues it might cause, or that this is an upstream description of this set of plugins in the description. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
