You previously wrote: It can't go into Fedora but it will end up in RPM Fusion http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746 =================== http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2009-August/msg00442.html Still it's strange that Debian has accepted it for Sid... with codecs only for Ogg Theora, of course. They're usually rather strict on patents. I suppose that, because of issues with FFmpeg and Win32 codecs, Red Hat would rather not touch Mplayer with a six foot pole but, for the end user, whether Mplayer is provided by Red Hat or RPMfusion makes no difference. Davide should be glad :) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
