Yeah, probably should. I can just disable it in the mythtv build, I think it
only really impacts mythtv's music player plugin. (Its already disabled in
the version of the mythtv spec file that gets stored in mythtv's svn for
this very reason).
Ok so at this time, there is a 100% agreement that faac need to be
moved to nonfree.
That's for F-12 only (despite every branches are concerned)... So I
expect faac to be moved to nonfree by now:
