How To Install mppenc on Fedora 34
Introduction

What is mppenc
This is a Musepack StreamVersion7 encoder for audio. Musepack is an audio compression format with a strong emphasis on high quality. It’s not lossless, but it is designed for transparency, so that you won’t be able to hear differences between the original wave file and the much smaller MPC file. It is based on the MPEG-1 Layer-2 / MP2 algorithms, but has rapidly developed and vastly improved and is now at an advanced stage in which it contains heavily optimized and patentless code.
