<html><head></head><body>Hi,<br><br>Of course not. We don't package a compiler, a kernel, a display server and a PulseAudio daemon. We don't package the decompressor binaries that the decomp filter uses. We don't even package ALSA and GL libraries that we have build-time dependencies on.<br><br>We need to provide sources for whatever we provide binaries. We don't provide binaries of YoutubeDL nor Python 3.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">Le 21 septembre 2020 12:39:26 GMT+03:00, Steve Lhomme <robux4@ycbcr.xyz> a écrit :<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
