Re: mplayer, the time has come



Hi,

I have some questions about your package:

*   You removed libmpdvdkit2/ because US laws suck.
    Why don't you remove also libfaad2/ which is full of patents problems ?
    (according to /usr/share/doc/ffmpeg/patents.txt.gz)

*   Why the "--disable-mencoder" in debian/rules ? 

*   Why the "--disable-aa" ?
    Ok caca is better than aa but it's not enabled either.

*   You build libavcodec and libavformat but that seems to me a waste of time.
    FFmpeg is already in main, why not only link mplayer with
    libavcodec.a (libavcodec-dev) and libavformat.a (libavformat-dev) ?


Qestion to all DD:
Without decss, faad, lame & xvid, mplayer insn't really mplayer.
Why debian doesn't have a semi-official structure similar to PLF ?
(Maybe it's time to resurrect non-us)


Regards,


Sebastien NOEL
