+The plugins are designed for being packaged and installed separately of akodelib.
+
+Take especially note of the following:
+- Do not install mpeg_decoder if you have software patent concerns
+- Do not install src_resampler and mpeg_decoder if you want a pure LGPL
+ library since they are both derived of GPL libraries.
+- If you wish to install plugins in a non-standard place, you can change the
+ AKODE_SEARCHDIR definition in lib/pluginhandler.cpp.
+- You SHOULD not install sinks for backends you don't use. Thus jack_sink
+ should only be installed when jackd is available, polyp_sink only when
+ the polypaudio server is used and alsa_sink only when using a Linux kernel
+ with ALSA drivers.
+ When using direct aKode playback sinks will be autodetected by loading and
+ probing plugins in this order: polyp, jack, alsa, oss
