I'll do that. But will this package enter Debian itself, or will we have to merge it directly from git? > The main problem with mp4v2 is its license: MPL.

Doesn't this mean we have the same issue with GPL software currently using libmp4v2 from mpeg4ip? Does it mean we need to get the upstream authors of gtkpod, kid3, etc. to relicense it under GPL+exception (which might not be possible)? As for libavcodec, I don't know about other applications, but these two use libmp4v2 to access and modify metadata, not the sound data itself. Is there another library for reading and writing AAC/M4A metadata? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJK9+jDAAoJEDqDNnQ69yYS8RoH/0ij1LnfEmP+hUM1msuJzadn fAdWrhGimli4zJ65nT2FkdxdxpnImMdblpwbzFdt86ikpxoLQOfkQDkgNHDL7L89 6F9+unLFlTf2cKNTBhu6tUsxZjd0ojlGiY28x+QtLQ5PrJV/zSS94SnaDzNPFzoE CxtEF3MmYwjGSJ6oGuuFMdabAXnqXOzIyBcjWIp0a9YhlnMtARpQcll8ipjF54l+ cXwhkFNf1YaJXAUFzlmRlf9VIqHHITbruVj7zDCZeT+v8WdRhXNRBqPIFXFsUGj5 5YdPCXdmWbdViNUiD0zBlc10ZW/kbiOfOUGzhUex2p2PsitpnSASJfqhuzG0wcs= =aKjR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-motu mailing list Ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-motu
