Hello !
Some may know that the faac FOSS status if unsafe.
Some projects have it disabled from their official build.
The ffmpeg build that I'm preparing will have it disabled.
the VideoLAN folk have removed it from their contribs.
same for mythtv according to this bug:
https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=780
Do we agree to move it to the nonfree repository ?
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).
