### Fedora

`lougain` depends on FFmpeg, which is not included in [Fedora](https://getfedora.org/) for legal reasons. However, `loudgain` can instead be installed from the third-party [RPM Fusion](https://rpmfusion.org/) repository:
From [Fedora](https://getfedora.org/) 36 onwards:

```bash
rpm -q rpmfusion-free-release || sudo yum install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-`rpm -E %fedora`.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install loudgain
```

The version of FFmpeg included with Fedora does not support some codecs for legal reasons, so you may prefer the FFmpeg package from the third-party [RPM Fusion](https://rpmfusion.org/) repository:

```bash
rpm -q rpmfusion-free-release || sudo yum install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-`rpm -E %fedora`.noarch.rpm
yum swap --allowerasing ffmpeg-free ffmpeg

Instead recommend installing libavcodec-freeworld to overlay the extra codecs.

Thanks for the tip. Actually, these days I don't think RPM Fusion adds any useful audio codecs, so I'm going to drop the suggestion entirely.
