Hi, The faac package is considered nonfree in Debian[1] and also in Parabola because according to the Parabola blacklist faac "is a GPL'ed package, but has non free code that can't be distributed under the GPL"[2]. The path chosen by Parabola (and probably most other FSDG compliant or 100% free distributions) was to make the packages not depend on faac. A quick search in the Parabola packages list[3] can show some of the packages having been (re)built without faac support[4]. Reference: ---------- [1]https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/faac [2]https://git.parabola.nu/blacklist.git/tree/blacklist.txt#n104 [3]https://www.parabola.nu/packages/?sort=&arch=x86_64&repo=Libre&q=faac&maintainer=&flagged= [4]Parabola uses most Arch Linux packages as-is, and it excludes problematic packages and/or replaces problematic packages. This is why some of the replacement packages mention "without nonfree faac". Denis.
