+&quot;linking&quot; means &quot;at compilation time&quot;, and due to the way rpm works,
+enforcing a strict dependency against the package providing the needed
+symbols. Dynamic loading of some feature is a plugin mechanism,
+involving a software modification effort. If we had to invest any time
+for such kind of engeenering effort, it would be wiser to seek for a
+definitive (aka faac-free) solution, rather than make the ugly solution
+just a little bit less ugly.
+
+Now, when dealing with legal matters, if you expect a comprehensible and
+useful answer, you'd better focus on a single issue. So, I wouldn't
+raise additional options we might
+eventually-realize-if-we-had-the-opportunity. KISS.
