--- Comment #16 from Sandro Mani <manisandro@xxxxxxxxx> ---
I fear I was completely unaware of the patent situation surrounding this codec,
and missed the corresponding line in the README file:

"Licensing: The source code is licensed under GPLv2. ITU G729 usage is governed
by a patent license to be acquired from Sipro Lab"

I can't find any hints that the patent situation has changed, in which case
this package needs to be removed from the distribution. Apologies for missing
this, multimedia stuff always requires special attention...
