severity 673717 wishlist thanks
Hello Dave, > Thomas Pierson, please read the launchpad bug. ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clementine/+bug/995689 ) Done. > The clementine dev said > that the Spotify plugin will build without libspotify and then > clementine will take care of the non-GPL parts. I understand but I can't add new build-depends on Clementine package just for building a plugin which depends on a proprietary software. I think this is not a valid reason considering the Debian guidelines. Considering the Debian Free Software Guidelines, Debian is a operating system build under a coherent free software context. I don't want to encourage people using an external proprietary library. This can cause side effects on Clementine (and on other packages) that we will not be able to solve. Instead of that, I prefer encourage people who works on a free implementation of this library : 'libopenspotify'. [1] [2] Maybe Clementine will be able to use it in the future.
