Why would we want a package specific to the maemo platform knowing that the
distro itself does not officialy support the platform? If you think I missed
it, could you point me to the Fedora maemo support page?

I am not suggesting the freeworld keyword should go but rather that using
subpackages would be consistent with other alsa-plugins subpackages. Splitting
the package has the additional benefit of not bloating the streamlined setup of
an embedded device. I would prefer to see 2 packages, one containing the a52
plugin: alsa-plugins-freeworld-a52 and the other having the lavcrate:
alsa-plugins-freeworld-lavcrate even if they both depend on libavcodec.
