Anyway, In both cases I am the packager, and would rather see the texlive variant shipped and the packages obsoleted. > xdvi Again, would prefer if we obsoleted the separate package and went with the texlive variant. Here however we may need to shipp a separate package for the japanese patched version. Or we could integrate the japanese patch into texlive - this may need some work though, as the japanese patch seems to be unmaintined presently. Longer term I hope xdvi just goes away, as its functionality increasingly gets added to evince - xdvi is only minimally maintained at this point and is rather... crusty. > dvipng Yep, we should simply go with the texlive version - I am happy with this, as dvipng maintainer. > xdvipdfmx > I'm not primary maintainer of this one, but again, I think we should go with the texlive shipped version (which is ahead of the version available as a separate tarball). Let me know if you need any help with this. Cheers, Jonathan -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
