The second one isn't a legal issue, is it? And some in the Fedora community do appreciate that some packages are offered in an extended way adding build time dependencies that are not in Fedora itself for various reasons (probably for similar reasons the third party repo exist at the first place). Wrt ATrpms while the tendency has been to remove as much as possible overlap I think we are not 100% there to having a solely add-on repo. What I want to say is that don't make policies that will only allow the One and Only Repo to pass. > However, Fedora reserves the right to list or omit repositories, and is > not required to do so, even if it meets this criteria. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
