Isn't cinelerra licensed under the GPLv2+, which means we are not allowed 
to distribute binaries linked against a non-free library? It looks like 
the faac discussion is not painful but completely useless.

Who wants to maintain this package? I built it and it appears to work but 
complains a bit - maybe due to cauldron ffmpeg - and crashes when 
trying to output AAC ("mp4a") because I forgot to remove that UI option.
