Bug Description

Please remove fdk-aac from Ubuntu.

It has been replaced by fdk-aac-free which provides the same binary packages.

This was done as part of the work to get the library from Debian's non-free to main and from Ubuntu multiverse to main. fdk-aac-free is the same version that Fedora has been shipping for years.

I have verified that the 3 reverse dependencies still build with the new fdk-aac-free version of the libraries.
