    <para>
      The <application>GStreamer Ugly Plug-ins</application> is a set of plug-ins
      considered by the <application>GStreamer</application> developers to have
      good quality and correct functionality, but distributing them might pose problems.
      The license on either the plug-ins or the supporting libraries might not be how
      the <application>GStreamer</application> developers would like. The code might
      be widely known to present patent problems.
