Bug#538753: avifile: contains embedded copy of LAME

[Andres Mejia <mcitadel@gmail.com>]

Package: avifile
Version: 1:0.7.47.20070718
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.3

avifile contains an embedded copy of LAME under the directory
avifile-0.7.47.20070718/plugins/libmp3lame_audioenc/lame3.70.

According to archived discussions at [1], LAME cannot be distributed, even in
non-free.

This shouldn't have much impact on the functionality of avifile as avifile
also supports dlopening the LAME library.

I'm also CCing the debian-qa team as it seems the maintainer for avifile is MIA.
