      BPM Analyser plugin only works under Linux yet it is available to download and enable in the Plugins options.

      I propose that we define (optional) additional metadata that plugins can add listing supported O/S types (Mac, Linux, Windows).

      If metadata not present all O/S should be assumed.

      If metadata is present and users O/S is not listed then if plugin is already installed and enabled it should be uninstalled, and it should not be displayed in the list.

          Yes, but there is an existing ticket PICARD-763

          Regarding BPM I would actually prefer to either ship audio by default on the Windows and macOS builds or instead of OS requirements specify Python module requirements. That would be more flexible and would allow users running from source or PyPI install to still use the plugin without facing restrictions.

          My last attempt of packaging aubio in the windows build.was unfortunately not successful, but it has been quite a while back.
