I'd have to go with Guillaume on that one.
The inclusion of faac came up a long time ago, and the simple logical
answer is to created a tainted-non-free repos.
However, the three problems with that solution are:
- there is only a handful of people at Mageia who can do that, and none
of them actually did it.
- there is only faac, so why bother? (fuelling the first reason)
- the reason that philippe mentioned: is having 3 versions of each
multimedia package really worth it? ...
Cheers,
