The diff looks bigger because the original file does not wrap lines,
so what you see as eight lines of text possibly contains a single char change.

--------------------------
The codec libraries are distributed under Xiph.Org's BSD-like
license (see the file COPYING.Xiph in this distribution). All
other programs, libraries, and plugins are distributed under
the GPL (see COPYING.GPL). The documentation is distributed
under the Gnu FDL (see COPYING.FDL).
--------------------------
It should be more clear about exactly which libraries are under the Xiph
license and which are under the GPL.
The website (http://flac.sourceforge.net/license.html) is more clear about what
libraries are specifically under the Xiph license. So it would be much better if
the module README aslo have the same info.
Also, it is not very clear why Flac wants to build GPL'ed plugins for the xmms
and winamp plugins. Since these plugins ship as libraries, it might make
more sense for them to be under Xiph. Perhaps this could also be explained a bit in
the README.
Thanks.
PS. I guess the component the bug raised against might not be right. Please move to the correct
component if I am worng.
