Is there an easy way in this new world for me to say that (for the sake of argument) gst-fluendo-mp3 is acceptable for inclusion but libomixl isn't? It seems to me that, for this feature to be much use, the LICENSE_FLAGS need to be a bit more explicit about spelling out what the requirements really are for each package. So, if the issue here is that you need to pay the MP3 decoder licence on each unit you ship, let's say something like LICENSE_FLAGS = "mp3-decoder-royalties" rather than just "Commercial". p.
