Hi,
There's the following paragraph in the ffmpeg's LICENSE file:
"The nonfree external library libfaac can be hooked up in FFmpeg. You need
to pass --enable-nonfree to configure to enable it. Employ this option
with care as FFmpeg then becomes nonfree and unredistributable."
Applying the FSDG, does it fall under:
"What would be unacceptable is for the documentation to give people
instructions for installing a nonfree program on the system, or mention
conveniences they might gain by doing so."
or under:
"For a borderline case, a clear and serious exhortation not to use the
nonfree program would move it to the acceptable side of the line."
?
