Ismail,

Can you point to the applicable patents? It was my impression that they were expired. I'm aware of EP0398973B1 and US9398620B1. Patent issues withstanding, the libfreeaptx mentioned in the request is forked from the LGPLv2.1+ openaptx 0.2.0 pre-problematic license change with rpath and no-static patches from Packman merged. Whichever between libfreeaptx or openaptx LGPLv2.1+ is preferred is fine with me, I am largely trying to determine if any patents are still blockers.


This is not about the packaging, we already have the correctly licensed package in Packman. SeeĀ 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1908922#c14 for the patent situation.
