Hi, Steven.

I'm adding the HURD people here, so that they can test the package and see
if something should be done or not.

For the HURD people, this is a reply to [my first e-mail][*] about getting
the HandBrake ripper/transcoder working on kFreeBSD and patches that need to
be added for building:

Great. Thanks for testing this. It may be the case that handbrake is added
only latter, since, at present, compiling mp4v2 with other (L)GPL software
results in undistributable binaries.

I hope that the HURD people could let me know about this, so that I can fix
some potential problems and, if necessary, forward fixes to upstream.


Thanks to all,
