Thomas Zander <riggs at FreeBSD.org> has reassigned Bugzilla Automation
<bugzilla at FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to
multimedia at FreeBSD.org:
Bug 223416: audio/faac update to 1.29 and later
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=223416



--- Description ---
faac introduces an API incompatibility with version 1.29.
In particular, the struct member allowMidside is dropped from struct
faacEncConfiguration. This causes most library consumers not to build
successfully.
The topic is addressed upstream, see https://github.com/knik0/faac/issues/8
Depending on upstream decision, we will adopt upstream fixes or develop
workarounds for the ports tree.

This bug report serves as a place to track these activities.
