Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package fdk-aac is already in Ubuntu **multiverse**.

The package fdk-aac builds for the architectures it is designed to work on.
It currently builds and works for architetcures: amd64 arm64 armhf ppc64el 
riscv64 s390x
Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fdk-aac

[Rationale]
- fdk-aac will be required by gnome-remote-desktop 43 to allow audio forwarding 
from the Ubuntu desktop host to the remote client.

- fdk-aac is required in Ubuntu main no later than Aug 25 due to kinetic
feature freeze

[Security]
- No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past

- no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
- no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
- Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
- Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024)
- Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software

[Quality assurance - function/usage]
- The package works well right after install

[Quality assurance - maintenance]
- The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu and has no open bug reports 
except for this MIR and a similar "move to main" bug in Debian
  - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fdk-aac
  - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=fdk-aac
- The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support

[Quality assurance - testing]
- The package does not run tests at build time because upstream doesn't provide 
one

- The package does not run an autopkgtest

[Quality assurance - packaging]
- debian/watch is present. It wasn't working so I pushed a trivial fix to the 
Salsa packaging repo.

- No significant Lintian warnings or errors
https://lintian.debian.org/sources/fdk-aac

- Lintian overrides are not present

- This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages.
- This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies

- The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf
questions

- Packaging and build is easy, link to d/rules
https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/fdk-aac/-/blob/master/debian/rules

[UI standards]
- Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation)

[Dependencies]
- No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main

[Standards compliance]
- This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy

[Maintenance/Owner]
- Owning Team will be desktop-packages
- Team is not yet, but will subscribe to the package before promotion

- This does not use static builds
- This does not use vendored code

- The package successfully built during the most recent test rebuild

[Background information]
The Package description explains the package well
Upstream Name is fdk-aac
Link to upstream project https://github.com/mstorsjo/fdk-aac

fdk-aac is currently in Debian non-free. It has been in the Debian NEW
