Comment (by ausil):
I am concerned that adding suggetss or reconmends on something like ffmpeg
could potentially open up Legal liabilities for unlicensed pateneted codec
use. I think that in the third party repos they should use Enhances and
Supplements. There is a reason why things are not in fedora, if we link
Fedora too closely to any of them it could be seen the same as fedora
shipping them.
