This in Dagda and Brigantia.

Seems to be ok.
I'm trying to do a streaming (.pls, .m3u, etc) using the online radio
stations. So gecko + mplayer is the only thing that works easily and
perfectly. I pulled out gecko from debian-squeeze. Is there any
alternative software in Trisquel-Slaine?
Thanks,

It has to do with how
[https://trisquel.info/en/__wiki/how-trisquel-made
<https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/how-trisquel-made> Trisquel is made].
Trisquel is made from Ubuntu and Ubuntu has 4 repository components
1) Main - Officially supported software.
2) Restricted - Supported software that is not available under a
completely free license.
3) Universe - Community maintained software, i.e. not officially
supported software.
4) Multiverse - Software that is not free.
That package [in ubuntu 11.10] which is the basic equivalent if
Trisquel 5.5 has that package in the multiverse repository. I don't
know why it is there (it appears to be GPL) but maybe there is some
patent restriction or something. We don't import any packages from
the multiverse repo because for whatever reason they are determined
by the Ubuntu community to be non-free. Hope that answers your
question.
