thank you for your detailed explanation about upgrading to MPL-2.0 - it is indeed more complex than I originally thought: what looks straight-forward in MPL-1.1 is modified to be useless for the purpose at hand by a special provision in MPL-2.0 ยง1.5. So either libmp4v2 would need to be co-licensed under the GPL, or the mpd authors would need to give permission to link mpd against libmp4v2 as described in the GPL FAQ (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLIncompatibleLibs), and while it would appear that they have done so by providing a configure option to that effect, there may be other GPL code linked into the work where this is not the case... I'll prepare an upload disabling libmp4v2 in the next few days. Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
