How to stop doing it is another question :-) Looks like some background information is here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=501636 Options: 1) Rebreak LZMA support by simply removing the lzma library 2) Figure out just which files need to be imported from the LZMA source to compile and include those. This would hinge on the definition of a bundled library which FPC is mulling over right now. 3) Port upx to use something other than the old liblzma. From the sounds of it, the old liblzma doesn't provide the needed API for upx to work. However, xz's liblzma is supposed to be closer to the zlib API so it might be possible to change this now. 4) You can request an exception from FESCo but it would need a compelling reason to grant it. -Toshio
