Particularly the requirement that anyone be able to freely modify and recompile MPD binaries from source as they wish. Thus I've pulled the binary versions of the code from my site until then. Some time ago I suggested a solution to the compilation problem but I then didn't write that it may also solve the GPL issue. The idea is to use the "vanilla" version of mpd and its FIFO sound output. Then, there are 2 possibilities: (1) the old idea: stream the sound to mono via some intermediate app, or (2) a new, better idea: develop a small self-contained app (dependent on the closed-source Sigma libraries) that will take a raw stream from a FIFO and play it. You would only have to distribute the small player app, and everyone could compile and distribute the unchanged mpd without violating GPL. |
