It would be good if someone who could pick it up w/o the issues that
Fedora had would do it -- pdftk was a good package and will be
missed. Given that Fedora isn't going to continue, I understand it
is a bit useless to make the comment here. But hopefully senior folk
in Fedora can give a push for pdftk to be "somewhere" within the
Linux world that Fedora users can pick up (and also Centos).
We'd love to have it in Fedora. The itext5 author is really the person
to talk to here.
Who would that be? Can this go to RPMfusion?
That's up to the RPMfusion people. But really, that's a lot less
ideal than having the software licensed in a truly open way so everyone
can benefit.
Completely agree with this sentiment! But we can not do much here, I guess, except hope!
Ranjan
Okay, I will hope (and in a positive manner as opposed to sarcastic) ...
but part of that will be in the spirit of my original use of the word
"hopeful" that someone with a "voice that matters" can give a push to
either itext5 author or rpmfusion group that it would be a good thing.
Thanks for giving this thread a "let's hope" flavor rather than a "ain't
gonna happen so forget it" brick wall
Well, yes it is a fond hope because as I said, it is a fond hope. But I can't make it happen because I do not know the issues that this entails.
Ranjan
I probably know less of the issues involved and understand that I am
walking a fine line to avoid sounding like a Pollyanna
