If you look closer you will find that the source rpm actually contains the
zip file with the code that is supposed to be downloaded. It also contains
a .doc that apparently is not distributable.

</I>&gt;<i> which is more cleanly licensed ( Apache license ). 
</I>
Is opencore-amr a drop-in replacement for amrnb/amrwb for ALL packages that
depend on it?
A quick google search didn't turn up a lot, only that apparently gstreamer
and ffmpeg can make use of opencore-amr.

Is the audio quality comparable?
I couldn't find any indication of that, but gstreamer has put opencore-amr
into the ugly plugins, rather than bad where amrnb/amrwb are, I don't know
if that's an indication of worse quality.

With regards to facc there is no equivalent replacement for it and it's
used by by a few projects so definitely can't be dropped.

Also while the faac license is non-free, it's not a problem to distribute
it, so the only problem we have is to decide where to put it (keeping in
mind where packages that depend on it will go too).
