Hi Anton, it seems to me that http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/liba/libav/libav_0.8.4-1/libavcodec53.copyright is no longer consistent with the actual licensing status of the libav library. I assumed that it was accurate (maybe it was at the time I originally reported the bug against netgen...) and based my analysis on it! I think this should be reported to the libav Debian package maintainers. Back to the netgen issue, a quick audit of the libavcodec/, libavformat/, and libswscale/ directories in the libav source tree shows that everything seems to be licensed under the GNU LGPL or under more permissive terms, except for: libav-0.8.4/libavcodec/x86/idct_mmx.c which is licensed under the GNU GPL v2 or later. Does this file get compiled into a library that is linked with netgen? -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/frx-gpg-key-transition-2010.txt New GnuPG key, see the transition document! .....................................................
