Hello,
I've been recently using FFmpeg for a personal project and I built FFmpeg
without --enable-nonfree and --without --enable-gpl, thinking that the
resulting libraries could be freely used. But I just found out I was
wrong.
So the point is.. to me the --enable-nonfree option is ambiguous and I
believe that something more explicit should used. From what I understood,
this option only enables the use of copyrighted code, and therefore isn't
redistributable.
Thus I would suggest something like --enable-nonredistributable rather
than the current name.
