AFAIU, most GNU distributions do not have them in > their main package repositories either. This is not directly concerned with Emacs, but I'm curious. According to Wikipedia, the "bad" problems of GStreamer have _technical_ problems; perhaps they need more work. Do you know whether all the "bad" plug-ins are ziyou? As for the "ugly" plug-ins, can you find for me a list of them, what formats they support, and what the "distribution problem" of each one is? Basically, I'd like to know what the obstacles are to their use. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
