--- Comment #3 from Michael Schwendt (Fedora Packager Sponsors Group) <bugs.micheal@xxxxxxx> ---
Just a quick comment:


> all packages that provide a dssi plugin are named like %{name}-dssi.

Likely those packages predate the %parent-%child naming guidelines and have not
been renamed.

Technically, these plugins are based on the DSSI Plugin API -- they all install
into %{_libdir}/dssi/ -- and therefore can be seen as add-ons to the "dssi"
package. Like LADSPA, where all LADSPA based plugins begin with "ladspa-":

  $ dnf -q list \*ladspa |grep -v ^Avail|wc -l
  1

  $ dnf -q list ladspa\* |grep -v ^Avail|wc -l
  17

There's also packages named

  dssi-calf-plugins : subpackage of "calf" -> review bug 492974 from 2009
  dssi-vst
  dssi-vst-wine

which follow the %parent-%child naming scheme.

Yes, sometimes this is not easy, and packagers/reviewers have come up with what
they found plausible during review. Possibly years ago.


Reading up on DSSI, it is said at
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposable_Soft_Synth_Interface
that it is old and that LV2 is considered a successor that reunites DSSI and
LADSPA.
