 * after satisfying all dependencies, run "make -j5" (change -j number to suit your number of CPUs/cores, e.g. 5 is quite good for single CPU dual-core machines). it is a good idea to do it as normal user (this step doesn't require root privileges).

 The Deadbeef player code is licensed under GPLv2, but this is not a requirement for plugins.
 Plugins don't link directly to deadbeef code, but are using special API header file which uses ZLib license.
-There are several plugins included in this source distribution that have code licensed under MAME and other licenses.
-Please inspect following plugins and libraries bundled with them for more info:
-    * plugins/dumb - uses a modified DUMB 0.9.3 library, which had issues with Debian in the past (but currently seems to be GPL-compliant)
-    * plugins/ao - uses Audio Overload SDK, which mixes code from many sources, under many licenses, including both GPL and MAME licenses. you might want to check legal status on distibuting linked MAME+GPL code
-    * plugins/shn - based on xmms-shn code, which has some code under Shorten license (see plugins/shn/LICENSE.shorten (which seems to be compatible with GPL)

-If you know other places in this project, that have licensing issues, but were not mentioned here - please let me know using this email: waker@users.sf.net
 
-any plugins that impose licensing issues can be safely excluded from build, please see "./configure --help" output for more details
-e.g. "./configure --disable-ao" will exclude AOSDK plugin from build
